This caterpillar was found in a tomato garden, feeding off the plants. The white innocent looking fluffy pods are actually some kind of wasp or hornet egg which will feed off the host until it dies – eaten alive. Nature is neither cruel nor kind.
Nature reserves the right to inflict upon her children the most terrifying jests. ~Thornton Wilder
