Giant Moth Discovered
Titanokorys gainesi, is a newly discovered species, that lived 500,000,000 years ago. The fossil, found in Canada’s Burgess Shale, is a gigantic moth. The Cambrian period didn’t have huge animals, like the massive dinosaurs of the Triassic, so the 1.6-foot-wide insect is one of the biggest Cambrian creatures ever found.
