This fantastic creature is the Jewel Caterpillar of the moth species Acraga coa. I’m not entirely sure which version of this animal I like better. My selling points for the caterpillar are that it:

1. Looks like its made entirely of crystal-clear hand blown glass

2. features a little ruby-like ‘jewel’ inside of every tubercle 

3. kind of reminds me of a gummy bear

Then there’s the adult moth which is just as impressive as its juvenile self. My reasons for liking this fellow are: 

1. It looks like a muppet 

2. it’s bright ORANGE! (how fun!)

3. It has fuzzy Ugg boots on

4. It looks like it needs a cuddle 

5. those big, black eyes are staring me down… so I can’t really resist its adorableness
