ayy this is ( most likely ) the caterpillar of the jeweled nawab butterfly ! the adult form isnt as exciting as the lil dragon look a like ( but sometimes they DO land on and consume minerals from dung and animal carcasses so theyve got that )
this isnt the only dragon headed caterpillar though – nawab and emperor butterflies are closely related, and a lot of em have caterpillars with similar looks, like the tailed emperor
