Beauty Where You Least Expect It: Brazilian Caterpillar Amazes With Transparent Allure

Brazilian Skipper Caterpillar - Sputnik International

Living on such an exceptionally beautiful planet like Earth we sometimes get used to the beauty surrounding us and forget to notice the smallest creatures living behind.

Just have a look at this Brazilian Skipper caterpillar – it is almost transparent and gives us a unique opportunity to see in vivid detail how it breathes. The caterpillar, which is about 5 cm long, is featured lying on a green leaf and, obviously, enjoying a relaxing moment.
