Puss Caterpillar
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009This one gives us the absolute creeps!
We’ve seen lots of wriggly, tickly and icky bugs in our time, but this thing has something about it that really turns the stomach. Good job it’s so off-putting as it is actually very dangerous even to touch! If you see one of these, leave it alone!
From wikipedia:
The ‘fur’ of the larva contains venomous spines that cause extremely painful reactions in human skin upon contact. The reactions are sometimes localized to the affected area but are often very severe, radiating up a limb and causing burning, swelling, nausea, headache, abdominal distress, rashes, blisters, and sometimes chest pain, numbness, or difficulty breathing
