The Puss Caterpillar

this is a very toxic caterpillar in North America this is Puss or Woolly Slug Caterpillar. Never be fooled by the appearance of cotton wool because this caterpillar will release its acid in anything that touches it and is loaded with a very poisonous thorn throughout its body. Although, the fur is long and very soft and harmless, the prick can also cause tremendous pain directly. Symptoms also from the sting can last a few days only and include headaches, nausea and vomiting. The color also varies greatly from grayish white to golden brown to dark gray and its body shrinks to its tail. This template is one inch long. This round can be found in orange trees, elms, oaks and home garden plants. ..
