subject: pepper plant and catepillar
why? I was out watering my plants one day and my pepper plant was flourishing with a ton of leaves (the before) I went out today to water and noticed I had a plant that was no longer flourishing, rather it had like 4 leaves and was all stick. I was like, what the heck? Then I looked at the base of the plant that still had leaves, and low and behold, here he was. Munching away. Look at him, he has like three sets of mandibles to munch away. He ate the whole darn plant. Not sure if you can tell from my photos but it is all gone.

Pepper plant similar to before someone got hungry |
 |
The plant sans leaves but the few he decided weren't worthy |
 |
I think those white/black things are the chompers- looks like the predator movies to me |
 |
Sure is pretty- and he is the kind that will turn into a beautiful butterfly |
 |
That is his little pointed stinger- I assume for protection |
