caterpillras looks like almost spiders or any other bug, they are lot of different kind and with many different colors, and so these little animals are VERY interesting in photography...
lol... poisonous plant = poisonous worm? I think anything (or almost) is colorfull and has black too is very dangerus...even at the touching!!!
