This is probably a tiger moth larva. The tiger moths (family Arctiidae) are a very colorful family of moths unlike most moths. There are many species of tiger moths. I don't know which species this moth might be. Search Arctiidae - BugGuide.Net. Wooly bears are arctiids.
Monarchs are brush footed butterflies (family Nymphalidae) and don't look anything like this to me. Search Monarch Larvae - BugGuide.Net |
