i've spoken at length about how immobile and unresponsive Charaxes jasius tends to be but they do adopt this funny tiptoeing stance when nobody's around for some reason (note how not only are the legs not touching the leaf, even the anal prolegs are raised) and quickly abandon it if you approach. normally you have all the time in the world to take photos of them but if you want to capture this specific behavior you practically have to sprint towards the host plant

The status of this species is in question. It is in the Polyura athamus species complex.

I think an overlooked aspect of potential BatFam stuff is how, because Tim had his own rogues gallery, a lot of those guys would probably carry that beef on with Damian. Sort of a sins-of-the-father situation, or sins of the predecessor in this case.
