Did these moths successfully mate?

Asked by FluffyChicken (5521points) August 15th, 2011

Today I was walking through the park when two moths suddenly landed on my left breast, and attempted to mate. It was awesome! I got to watch the little female moth vibrate her wings at him ever so seductively, and flash her mothy lady bits at him while he followed after her and attempted to swing his abdomen around to attach… unfortunately, I don’t think they were successful in that moment, as they were attached for less than a mere second, is it possible that that actually mated during that brief tap? I’ve seen butterflies and other moths attached, but they fly around while attached and such.

if not one can only hope they found a better place to make adorable little caterpillar babies.
