Ang henyo ng pamamahayag na ito ay sobrang espesyal, hindi sa hirap nito, ngunit para sa kalabisan. Natagpuan ko ang parehong kwento na dinala sa dalawang magkakahiwalay na mapagkukunan, na may iba't ibang mga imahe – at kapwa pantay na hindi tama! Naiisip ko na hindi magtatagal para sa isang tao na maituro nang eksakto kung ano ang mali sa mga kuwentong ito (pahiwatig, marami 2 bagay).
Narito ang una mula sa Mirror.co.uk “Giant rare moth na natagpuan sa Devon”.
At ang pangalawa mula sa Daily Mail online ” Rare Luna moth natagpuan sa Devon…”
How do you find these things?!
Okay, the North American luna moth is by no means endangered, but I’d say this is not the North American species, but rather the Indian moon moth (Actias selene) – a commercially available species that is commonly reared by enthusiasts.
Bingo! It’s not uncommon for one news source to print something and have it picked up elsewhere – so when I usually find duplicates I ignore that fact. But this was was really odd because it was two separate articles with different material yet both equally wrong.
The nice thing about this series is that I never have to worry about finding new material; the media will always disappoint.
And you’re right, someone probably just reared this moth in the UK for fun. Their laws regulating things like that are not nearly as strict as they are here in the US, so it was probably the woman’s neighbor!
