What kind of bug is this
I’m from Ontario, Canada. My son was walking along the grass when he found this caterpillar. We have no idea what kind it is. Wondering if anyone can put a name on it for us. Thank you

Hi Eric and Graham,
This is a Cecropia Moth Caterpillar, one of the Giant Silk Moths or Saturnid Moths.
