Don't touch! ~ Saddleback caterpillar ~ I found this weird looking caterpillar crawling over my front porch and wasn't sure what he was. Would he turn into a butterfly or moth??  I did some searches and found out they have venom in those spikes and you'll be in a world of hut if you touch him. I picked him up with my long handled duster thingee, hence the cat hairs stuck on him. He was really neat looking though, After I got these pics, I set him free and on his way without harming him.
