Woolly Bear Caterpillar festivals are held every year across the American Midwest, celebrating these insects and their weather forecasting capabilities. Few people know that these festivals descend from the old Woolly Bear Fairs.
Contestants would raise caterpillars to large sizes by preventing them from pupating. The record size of 8′10 (2.69 m) was measured in the 1932 Fair in Gondal, OH.

Animal of the Day!
Arctic Woolly Bear (Gynaephora groenlandica)
Tumblr media
(Photo by Vasika Undurawane)
Conservation Status- Unlisted
Habitat- Northern Canada; Greenland; Wrangel Island
Size (Weight/Length)- 70 mm
Diet- Leaves
Cool Facts- You might be surprised to hear that insects are able to thrive in environments that dip below -70 Celsius. The arctic woolly bear is a tiny moth that has mastered the freezing cold. These caterpillars live their life in constant motion as the growing season, when food is available, is only a maximum of 70 days. The caterpillars switch between feasting on leaves and basking in the sun, doing their best to grow in a race against the clock. When leaves start to shrivel and the snow returns, the arctic woolly bear weaves itself a silken blanket and shelters under the snow, essentially freezing itself solid. After a total of seven years, amounting to only 490 days outside of diapause, the arctic woolly bear cocoons and bursts out as a moth. For a period of 3-4 weeks, the moth flutters around to breed and lay eggs before passing away and the cycle continues through their offspring.
Rating- 12/10 (Spends only 6% of its life as an adult.)

Found this little dude hanging out in the kitchen! Ignore the cheese wrapper, I was trying to use that to help the little lad back outside.
Idk why the cheese wrapper was so funny to me but it made me laugh aloud. Glad they were safely relocated!
