Dag 1687: A day in the life of an explorer

I decided to spend this Bank Holiday monday doing a bit of exploring. Specifically I decided it would be a good idea to try an find a new species of caterpiller.

So, after many hours of dedicated exploring in extremely difficult and dangerous terrain, I finally came upon that elusive new species I had been dedicating my whole life to finding.

I had brought my collection of scientific instruments with me so I was able to photograph and take full measurments of the specimin I had tracked down. As can be seen, this is, to date, the largest caterpiller ever found.

The specimum is over 6 and a half inches long

As I journeyed further into the wilderness I found an even larger one eating a small tree.

I had to move on quickly after taking this in case I was attacked!

Based on my calculations this caterpiller will most likely turn into a new giant species of butterfly with a wingspan of at least 3 feet. It will feed on medium sized mammals, such as dogs and cats, and it will also be poisonous. In fact the entire nation could well be wiped out before the end of the year.

So be afraid, be very afraid.

But don't have nightmares.
