Tuesday at recess, Matthew from Mrs. Goulart's second grade found a mysterious creature. " I found it on a tree and decided to show my friends and teacher." Matthew explained.
We discovered that it is a type of caterpillar called a "Crowned Slug" and it can be found from Florida up to Massachusetts. Be careful because their spines can sting you! We are happy to release it back outside again!
Here is a great close up picture we found online of the Crowned Slug:
