I am dreadfully sorry for the lack of a photo...And lack of information. But, my friend was walking down his street and saw a caterpiller that intersted him, and me being the only animal obbsessed person around, he asked me and I am stumped.

The best description I can get from my friend is that he saw this catterpiller on a street, he was pink, segemented, and each segement hard dark-pink barbs a half inch in length.

We live in Central/Upstate New York if that helps also...

Thank you so much!

Takky, that's a really hard one.....especially without a photo, maybe someone else will recognize it.

Fly : Yah, that always seems to happen...I'm debating weather or not to just keep a camera on a necklace at all times XD

Melody : Ah! Thank you, I'd love to be able to tell you, but my friend is not online at the moment and thats how we talk normaly...I sent him the link though, so I'll tell you if he says anything! :D

Also I may be going away for a bit, so if you don't hear from me, sorry!
