Here is caterpillar #5. I call him the traveler and the survivor. For and insect, he has a lot of personality. He loves of walk around and explore:
Last Wednesday he decided to go walk away from the milkweed leaves and ended up in the damp paper towels I use to hydrate the leaves. While cleaning their container, I threw the paper towels away and then realized that I could not find him anywhere. I asked Bob to get the paper towels out of the trash (by this time other things had been thrown on top of it) and I went through it all and found him! Here he is after being rescued. Lucky, lucky guy!
However, on Thursday, his luck ran out. He had decided to explore around the container and unfortunately ended up on this price sticker that I didn't get a chance to remove. He got stuck on the sticky backing and didn't make it.
