Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: My 8-yr-old son wants to keep and feed this caterpillar and release it once it becomes a butterfly or moth. But in order to do so we need to know what to feed it. We live in Santa Fe, NM, where we found it, so no doubt its preferred foods are local and attainable. Thanks!
