Amazing creature!
Some day when I have looong free time, I want to go through every single one of your 2,900+ spottings. I'm very much looking forward to finding many gems buried in your collection. :-)
What an incredible caterpillar! Thanks for sharing Sergio!
Rams4d, Mayra, Ashley, Larry, Jakubko, Julio, Ceherzog, Luis, Yuko & Smith's zoo: thank you very much for your kind comments. This spotting was posted more than a year ago, and was kind of buried in my collection. I am glad that it resurfaced and got the attention it deserves. After all, to go unnoticed seems to be the last thing this beauty wants! :-)
Puts the "cat" in caterpillar! Great spot Sergio!
This caterpillar just blew my mind! Fabulous!

@UmapornSarasat Yes, it is a caterpillar, and a very dangerous one. It is said that the effect of its sting lasts for at least 24 hours, and causes extreme pain.
Catarpillar??
