Lovely! Ann is correct with Arctia caja. Could you please update the identification? Thank you very much.

It pattern looks more like a giraffe than a tiger!

I thought he was a handsome fellow. I am judging by how bright his colors are that he is male. Most of the ones I see are drab grey with slightly darker grey markings. So I was curious.
