Critter of the Week: The Common Bag Moth

Afternoons - A podcast by RNZ - Thursdays

Categories:

This week's critter is the common bag moth, Liothula omnivora. These drab little critters are found all over the country hanging from fenceposts, branches and even letterboxes. The caterpillars spin themselves a tough sleeping bag out of silk, bark and leaves, and then drag it around with them.
