I've always loved caterpillars and, as a kid, never hesitated to pick one up. Until one time I picked up this unusual spiky black one and my hand started to feel numb and painful.

One year when I was maybe about 6, our area had a caterpillar infestation. No idea what type they were, but they were harmless. I loved it! Our neighbor paid me to pick all the caterpillars off her fruit tree. I filled an entire ice cream tub with them.
