Milkweed Tussock Moth Caterpillar


I was visiting the ponds where I work and noticed a bunch of these caterpillars on one of the milkweed plants. I had never seen caterpillars like it before, so of course I had to snap a picture. One of my daughters adopted one as a pet and it has now pupated and we are waiting to see what the adult looks like.
