HUGE Caterpillar! ID ?

Just found a huge caterpillar while harvesting some potatoes. Never seen one this big in my life. Anyone recognise it or know what butterfly or moth variety it belongs to? http://s288.photobucket.com/user/uyq...illar.jpg.html Normally I kill caterpillars but didn't have the heart to kill this magnificent beast despite it scoffing my potato foliage; so I released it elsewhere in the garden. The caterpillar of our largest moth, the Death's Head Hawk Moth eats potato leaves so that could be what it was. -- Chris Green · |
