The Milkweed Bug is the common name of Oncopeltus fasciatus.
Specifically, this insect's favorite food source is the milkweed plant. Wildlife tends to steer clear of the milkweed's bitter contents. Those that favor the plant become equally distasteful meals that predators avoid. The insect's orange and black coloring warns other wildlife of the disagreeable consequences of considering it as prey.
