One year ago, a termite mound on a manzanillo tree in Curacao.

Two different species of stinging caterpillar that I've found in my yard

The White Flannel Moth Caterpillar

and the Saddleback Caterpillar

While posting the above I remembered a sign I saw in a national park in Southern Brazil warning of stinging caterpillars that might be found in that area.

I just now looked up the species mentioned on that sign, and found that the Lonomia obliqua Caterpillar is referred to as "The World's Most Venomous Caterpillar" or "The World's Deadliest Caterpillar". It apparently is responsible for more deaths per year (3 / year) than Sharks ( 1 every other year)

One lady was stung on the toe by one that was in her slipper. Four days later she lapsed into a coma due to the sting, and three days after that she died. OMG.

Bob, that is so frightening! Never to Brazil for me.
