Growing up, my Mom always warned me to stay away from the fuzzy caterpillars. They're poisonous, she'd tell me.
I always laughed.
Turns out, some of them actually are!
And today is the first time I ever bothered to actually check that out. That's just sad.
Let me tell you ... there are a lot of weirdass caterpillars out there. Googling 'poisonous caterpillars' brings you to some really bizarre images.
One word - ick.
I swear I hear my Mom Itoldyouso-ing me.
