_{"Caterpillar - Danaus chrysippus"}

Hello creative friends, we meet again today, this time I will post a photo of a caterpillar, I found this photo when I was looking for an insect object in the local forest near where I live, as usual when I find something I start looking for names through google lenses. After seeing and reading some of the information contained there, I concluded that the caterpillar that is similar to the type of caterpillar in my post is called Danaus chrysippus or also called the plain tiger, the caterpillar is an animal that is still included in the insect family. It was also explained that caterpillars are voracious eaters, they become pests for farmers.

After finding the name then I also searched more about the name in a google search, and there I found wikipedia, on wikipedia it was explained that:

_{The larvae of Danaus chrysippus mainly consume plants in the genus Asclepias , more commonly called milkweed such as the thistle tree. Milkweed contains a toxic compound, cardenolides , which many butterflies consume and store. Due to its emetic nature, the larvae of this animal are usually not well liked by most predators.
