Years ago, when I was gardening with my grandma, I found a caterpillar that was 8 cm long, had a nose/snout that extended and retracted, had two yin yang symbols on top of its head and two rather large (in proportion to its body) front claws. (not sure if it had more, I can't remember) I kept it in a box and called it 'Badger' so I could take it to school the next day and it was scratching the bottom of the box so loud it woke me up in the night. I never got to ask my teacher what it was and I just remembered it now; does anyone know what kind of caterpillar it was? If it was a caterpillar at all :confused:

Yes, and what were you smoking at the time and what are you smoking now?

I don't smoke. Though I can see why you'd think so. My granda took a photo of it, it's in my room somewhere...

Well, find it and show us

I definitely want to see this picture! Are you sure it wasn't a dream? :)

It was real! I have witnesses and my little brother remembers it! XD
I'll look for it tomorrow; I'm going to bed now.

What has this got to do with yin and yang symbols ?

Just some weird pics of caterpillars...

I rang my granda and found out what it was :D

Well thanks for clarifying that, princess ! Caterpillars turn into lovely butterflies.
