A Portuguese man o’ war. washed up on the Cornish coastline. Their sting is potentially fatal, though rare to humans so watch out for the family dog. Tentacles are typically 10 m (33 ft) in length.

I found this little friend in Savannah, GA! I moved them off of the sidewalk into some bushes, knew better than to handle those tufts with my hands though.

Very smart not to handle it! It’s an io moth caterpillar and its spines do indeed sting - the pain has been likened to a very bad bee sting that can last for several hours. But boy oh boy are the adults pretty!

You think it’s just a normal lookin dude

but the BOOM

Very nice :) Photo by gborn and crgillette
