The Puss Caterpillar (Megalopyge opercularis), despite its soft, kitten-like appearance, is the most venomous caterpillar in the United States; its silky hair conceals thousands of hollow, venomous spines that break off upon contact, causing intense, throbbing pain that victims describe as feeling like their bones are breaking.

The Puss Caterpillar: Cute but DangerousAdded:
A cute kitten. No, it's the most painful caterpillar in America. It looks like a soft plushy, right? Fatal mistake. This is the puss caterpillar. The most deceptive insect out there. Hidden under that silky hair are toxic spines that snap off into your skin at the slightest touch. The pain is so intense that victims say it feels like their bones are breaking. Never under any circumstances pet this kitty.
