Some birds and snakes are enemies of the attacus atlas moth. The moth, however, is quite adept at camouflage and is able to escape predation because of it.
I'm not sure exactly, but they have a false eye on their wings that looks like a snakes head. This supposedly scares away many predators.
They eat citrus, willow leaves, and evergreen tree leaves.
Attacus atlas is the largest moth in terms of wing surface area. Also notable is Thysania agrippina, which has the longest wingspan. The former is considered the largest moth, though.
The biggest type of moth is the Atlas moth. It's a proven fact by the scientists of Central Michigan Comity.
The Atlas moth has the shortest life span. They spend about a month in their cocoons. After coming out of the cocoon, they live about one to two weeks as an adult then usually die.

The Attacus Atlas Moth is a member of the Saturnidae Family. Imagos i.e. adult moths,of the Saturnids have non-functional mouth-parts, meaning that they cannot eat. Therefore all the energy requirments of the imago are built up by the larval stage i.e. the caterpillar. This energy is largely stored as fats that pass from the larva through the pupa to the imago. The answer to the question "How does an Attacus Atlas Moth obtain food?" is, The Attacus Atlas Moth does not obtain food as an adult.
The Attacus atlas, commonly known as the Atlas moth, is native to Southeast Asia. It can be found in countries like India, China, Malaysia, and Indonesia. They inhabit tropical and subtropical forests.
Attacus atlas was created in 1758.
They eat citrus, willow leaves, and evergreen tree leaves.
The Atlas Moth has very few enemies. Some species of caterpillars will eat the larvae of the Atlas Moth. Atlas Moths are used in India to make a type of silk. The fibers from their cocoons are harvested after the Atlas Moth has emerged.

An owlet moth has the record wingspan. The wingspan of a moth can actually range from 80 to 150 millimeters.
The largest discovered moth in the world (there are still regions of our planet that haven't been explored) is called Attacus atlas. Also known as Atlas Moth. They can grow a wingspan of up to 30cm. They are found in South-East Asia and the Malay areas. Although sometimes during migration they can get lost and end up where they shouldn't be, especially if they get caught in a strong wind. The furthest an Atlas Moth has been found is in Manchester, England, probably after being "hijacked" by the wind because they shouldn't be that far out of Asia naturally (it was taken to a specialist zoo in England to be looked after).
The atlas moth is the largest saturniid moth which originated in Indonesia. The average wing span of the moth is 262 millimeters.
