The video describes the luna moth's transformation from a vulnerable, flightless state to a fully developed moth with wings. Initially, the moth is at risk from predators like mice. However, as it completes its transformation, its wings become covered in slippery scales, making it difficult for predators to catch. This adaptation highlights the role of evolution in the moth's survival.
