I found this dude while weeding my raspberries. Based on what I can find online I believe its a Zale caterpillar but unable to narrow it down any further.
We decided to hang onto to it to see if it would make a cocoon and what it would turn into. That worked fine for a couple days but somehow the dude was able to get out and took off. This was a bummer, as we didn't get to experience that process but also had I known it was going to get away I simply would have feed it to our turtles. At 2 inches that would have been a good snack.
Oh well, perhaps I'll come across another one.
