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!
Galaxy caterpillar
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.
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?
Venom/ injection
Poison/ ingestion
Edit:I’m not sure about absorption…
Still poison. But if you had a cut/open wound on your skin or in your mouth/digestive tract venom would still be effective.
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?
Gotta love the goofy ‘eyes’
Is this Rompopolo from Monster hunter?
For being a major pest, it is quite striking.
It looks like a clear night sky!
