I am looking to identify a caterpillar that we found in our garden. It does not look like one of our Monarchs.

Can you tell us what type of plant the caterpillar is on and the location (what part of the country or world) it's growing? You don't have to give an exact city/state but location may help determine the type of caterpillar.

Hi AvramPhoto, Welcome!

I'm not sure what butterfly/moth that might be but it sure is beautiful! Lovey dubby

Can you give us an idea of what part of the world it was found? It reminds me of a Swallowtail (Papilio) but I'm not real sure. It may help to narrow down an exact match if you can give a location of where in the world it was located.
