Dialogue When Caught
“I caught an Atlas moth! I bet it never gets lost!” |
Dialogue When Donated to Blathers
| “The Atlas moth is a monstrous thing! Not only is it one of the largest moths in the world... The tips of its wings look rather like the heads of venomous snakes! Despite its largeness and loathsome looks, the adult Atlas moth lives only for a few days. It emerges from its cocoon without a mouth, you see...and so cannot eat. I feel for the poor thing...but it is still foul!” |
