In case it’s not clear from the pic, this is a caterpillar.
It’s very much not clear, lol, I was coming here to ask. FASCINATING photo.
My God, it’s full of stars!
Can’t unsee

Eyes ward off predators because they make the creature look like a big predator, so that’s very much the point of those markings.
for some animals fake eyes can be on a nonessential part of the body like a fish’s tail, because eyes are also an indicator of where the head is and is a primary target for predators. so they can get away with a damaged tail instead of losing their head to a massive bite.
Gotta love the goofy ‘eyes’
It looks like a clear night sky!
Is this Rompopolo from Monster hunter?
For being a major pest, it is quite striking.

It’s so cool looking. Usually means it’s poisonous.Is it?
Technically is that venomous if it doesn’t inject but is just poisonous on the outside?

We could invent a third one until someone corrected us. They say that’s the fastest way to get a correct answer on the Internet. Instead of asking, just say something wrong.
How about touchydeathy?
Still poison. But if you had a cut/open wound on your skin or in your mouth/digestive tract venom would still be effective.
