swallowtail caterpillarswhats this bug
hello.
we would like to find out what this bug is. it is yellow and has green suction cup feet with 2 blue spots on each segment of his body. he looks similar to a caterpillar. he has cartoonish looking black lines and spots on his head and around his eyes. we’ve never seen anything like this. thanks

Hi Katie and Kapri,
This is a Spicebush Swallowtail Caterpillar. They often turn from green to orange just before getting ready to metamorphose into a chrysalis.
