Entomologist friends!

The famous Carl Linnaeus also told about this unique caterpillar (at night to his granddaughter), but until recently no one could find it, much less bring out a butterfly from it. Scientists did not take this insect seriously, and in one voice spoke about the inventions of the old man who had lost his mind Linnaeus. But recently I received a package from Honduras. And what did you think-here it is, dear!!! Meet Risus potatoria f. dicaput L.

This caterpillar has a ferocious appetite. She eats for two, but she can't... go to the bathroom. She just wriggles around constantly , smiling at me this way and that , and sometimes burps something.

I received an equally urgent and official response to my urgent official request to the Embassy of Honduras. If you remove the "Top Secret" label from it, then translate it into Russian, and then remove obscene expressions, you will get " ... - - -...", which in a free translation already from Morse code means "Feed the PTA so that everything is digested by TCHK".

Can you tell me how and what to feed her so that there are no ... breeding products? I really want this unique (rarest!!!) the caterpillar did not die , but turned into a charming two-headed pupa, and then into a previously unknown butterfly. It will undoubtedly be included in all the Red Books of the world very soon.

I really hope for your help.

Sincerely, Alexander Nagorny.

PS. For the imago (butterfly), the Nobel Bureau of Honduras promised a prize in the category "Entomolochia", as well as a free trip for two to a master class on macro photography on Lake Peipsi during the rainy season (from the sponsor-Roshydromet). I refused the bonus right away, but I want to go to the tropics. People, the one who will help me, I will take with me!!! Honest pioneer!!!
