NDTV – A giant moth – so big and so heavy that it struggled to fly – was found at an Australian school on Monday. Builders found the giant wood moth while constructing new classrooms at Queensland’s Mount Cotton state school, reported
The Guardian. The moth was described as being about as big as a rat.
The school’s principal Meagan Steward called it an “amazing find”.
“Our new building is situated on the edge of a rainforest and during the build the moth was found,” Steward told
ABC Radio Brisbane.
She said that while staff and students were used to seeing a range of animals at the school, the moth was unlike anything they had seen before.

But recently, builders who were adding new classrooms to the school made a discovery that stood out even among the famously diverse fauna of Australia. The builders found a giant wood moth, which can have a wingspan of up to nine inches.
