Attacus Atlas, The Largest Butterfly in The World, Has No Mouth And Cannot Feed

It seems like something that we could only find in fiction or a horror film, an animal that does not have a mouth with which to feed or that is completely sealed, leading it to an inevitable end after just 5 days of life.

But it exists and it is also the largest butterfly in the world, the Attacus Atlas, which lives in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, the archipelago of Malaysia, Indonesia and Borneo. It is called Atlas for the titan of Greek mythology and for its great size.
