Thought these were Monarchs eating my Frangepanias. They're not. they triple in size within 2 to 3 days. They are ENORMOUS now and even scare the cats and birds. Is it "MOTHRA'' ?

Its a Frangipani Sphinx Moth caterpillar - they don't sting or anything, but can get up to 10 inches long...

Ten inches!! That would really scare me if I came across one. Beautiful though. Are they native?

You would think it would change into a beautiful colourful moth - but no - just a big brown one. Wonderful to see though.

Not native here, Merlinbabydoc, I don't think we get them at all here.

Thank goodness!!

Yea, I'm glad they're not here either - at 10 inches, you'd be tempted to use a shotgun, lol
