Spiny oak slug caterpillar (Euclea delphinii), #4697

Reveler Conservation Area

I went back to the conservation area to try and relocate this caterpillar and was successful. However, I still have not been able to get a photograph I am happy with! It is such a spectacular little creature with all those vivid colours and spikes. I mean, who'd think it was a moth caterpillar!
