Submitted by: moggie46
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I found this caterpillar on a bush/tree that is growing in one of my flower beds. In all my 70 years, I have never found anything like it. Located in Watrous, SK Canada. It was about an inch and a half long. After taking the photo, I took it back to the tree I found it on. It had obviously been eating the leaves.
