The Very Hairy Caterpillar! - 毛深い青虫!

While looking quite fluffy and soft, you want to avoid any possible contact with this caterpillar! The very numerous, long spines and hairs are tipped with irritating chemicals and can provoke extremely painful rashes requiring medical treatment.

Yet, the caterpillar itself is still beautiful.

柔らかいフワフワにみえますが絶対触って行けません!この長い毛は炎症、はれ、蕁麻疹を起こす化学物質に追われている。触ってしまったらすぐ病院へ!

と言っても青虫はまだ綺麗である!

I killed it so many times... Should i feel guilty?
🙏🙏🙏

Not too guilty, they can be dangerous and if you can't remove them safely, that is sometimes the best option (for the humans). I try to move them if I can but you really do need to be careful with this particular species, those spines are not for show!

Yups... My innate stuff is guiding me right

wow, beautiful caterpillar macro photography, but I'm afraid of caterpillars

Thanks! The good news is, caterpillars aren't aggressive but you do need to be careful about which ones you can touch.

You have photographed this caterpillar in a perfect way. So he looks beautiful and special. But the fine hairs are very venomous, can give a very itchy effect on the skin. Good luck always for you @mweich.

Thanks, it's on the edge of a sickle for a reason!

Yes proves that they are too dangerous to hold. 😀👍
