This caterpillar is about ten centimetres long and about one centimetre in diameter. It spends three years growing inside a tree, gnawing its way through a tunnel there. Look at those tools it has at the front. The literature mentions branches snapping. I came across this one just as it was deciding where to pupate. It will then emerge as an inconspicuous, well-camouflaged large moth. It’s called the wood-plunderer, which is hardly surprising.
