A silkmoth that has hatched out of its cocoon is seen at the Campoverde cooperative

A silkmoth that has hatched out of its cocoon is seen at the Campoverde cooperative, Castelfranco Veneto, Italy June 4, 2015. Despite having wings, the adult moth cannot fly. Clusters of silkworms munch on piles of locally-grown mulberry leaves in a white marquee in Italy's northern Veneto region. They are nourishing hopes of a revival of Italy's 1, 000 year-old silk industry. Picture taken June 4, 2015. REUTERS/Alessandro Bianchi TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY
