The garden tiger moth is a moth with bold patterned wings that warn predators it is unsafe to eat. It lives in cool, temperate parts of the northern United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. Its caterpillars are known as 'woolly bears' because of their fuzzy look.1

Moč strupa

Ožigalne dlačice

Drobne dlačice ali ščetine se odlomijo v koži in pečejo.

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

This moth does not inject venom. Its body fluids are poisonous and contain neurotoxic choline esters, which are nerve-affecting chemicals that interfere with the acetylcholine receptor. The full effects of these toxins are not yet known. Caterpillars have hollow hairs that often contain irritating compounds.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: BlagaKot čebelji pik ali manj. Za ljudi praktično neškodljiva.

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

When threatened, adults can spray an irritating compound from glands that are exposed at that moment, and their bright wing patterns warn predators.1

Če se dotakneš njenih dlačic

Pri ožigalnih dlačicah gosenic: odstrani jih z lepilnim trakom, nato umij kožo. Ne drgni.
Pri ugrizih: umij in ohladi. Poišči zdravniško pomoč, če se poškodovanec slabo počuti ali hitro krvavi.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
Če se dotakneš njenih dlačic: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

Dejstva

Adults can make rasping sounds with their wings and high-pitched squeaks that people can hear, and bats tend to avoid them.1

Caterpillars can break down the toxins in their host plants and reuse them in altered form for their own protection.1

The French entomologist Oberthür described about 500 different wing pattern and colour variants.1

Adults are mostly active at night, from June to September.1
