"An illustrated guide to holding, caring for and identifying
caterpillars."
Creatures that can turn from a caterpillar into a butterfly or a
moth fascinate everyone. But there are many other interesting
things to observe in the world of the caterpillar before
metamorphosis. As you watch, you'll see leaves disappear into their
nearly invisible mouths. Notice the smooth motion of sets of
prolegs that are one of the unique characteristics of caterpillars.
With the help of this guide and its close-up photographs, readers
will learn about the body parts of a caterpillar, their life cycles
and how to help them by planting certain types of flowers that will
attract the insects.
With helpful tips and tricks, this guide instructs the
caterpillar hunter on how to find, identify, feed and care for
these amazing insects. Ground rules for raising caterpillars are
provided, as well as information about removing them from
conservation areas. Identification information and photographs
thoroughly describe the different kinds of caterpillars and warn
the reader about the few dangerous caterpillars that should not be
handled.
