Southern Flannel Mothと言う猛毒蛾の幼虫らしい。
親子共々猛毒でさなぎにすら毒毛があるらしい。
ここまでするということはボリビアには昔こいつの天敵がいまくり
それの対策として進化した結果 こんな風になったのかな？

Lynette, if your in an area to see one be careful of the larvae. I brushed up against one of these 6 years ago while picking a pear out of my pear tree and was
stung. I would have swore someone cut off my finger and was pouring boiling water into it. The pain was unbelievable and the finger
immediately began to swell. We scooted 3 of the catepillars off the tree
with a leaf and put them in a ziplock bag. The five mile drive to the emergency room was terrifying. The pain like a thermometer moved it's way up my arm toward
my heart. As we entered the emergency room I began to feel the pain
in my chest and was rushed to a
bed. Within minutes I began to
have a metal taste in my mouth as I went unconscious. No one knew what they were. It took the head of the emergency room
leaving to look it up on the internet. (My husband told me later they used a paper plate and made what looked like a circus tent over the bag with a little sign...
"Can you name the animal?") I'm 5 foot tall and was 115 pounds at the time. The entire event took less than 15 minutes until I went unconscious. My hand
remained swollen for about a week. With a punch like that, I don't think I'd touch the moth either. I'm terrified of them.
It's no wonder they also call them the "ASP" caterpillar in Texas. I was stung in Maryland
