If that’s a tomato horn worm, I’m on the wasps side…

Hornworms are a delicious treat for any lizard large enough to eat them. Bearded dragons seem to love them. If you catch them and put them into a container with a food/water source anyone with a pet like that will happily pay you for them.

They also make a good first pet for kids because they’re cheap and die fast anyways

But only a treat. Maybe theres been more science done in the past 5 years, but I remember them being basically junk food for lizards.

Don’t worry. “God made them this way”.

I love the part where there’s a virus that some wasps carry and inject with the eggs that suppresses the host’s immune response

I just watched that video of the white cabbage larva with the smaller larvae exiting its body. Jeez, it’s still alive after THAT? Life’s rich pageant, I guess.
