Determined Bagworm Moth Caterpillar Carries a Load of Camouflaging Sticks to Keep Safe From Predators
Wildlife photographer David Weiller (previously) captured the amazing and somewhat amusing sight of a determined bagworm moth caterpillar carrying a vertical cocoon of sticks in order to stay safe from a variety of hungry predators.
This 15mm caterpillar larva is carrying stacked vertical sticks and other environmental materials, which offer a natural camouflage from predators.
