Banded or Pale Tussock moth caterpillar
by: Moni

You have brought in a Banded tussock moth caterpillar sometimes called Pale tussock moth. So your friend will turn into a pale yellow/brown moth that has faint bands across the wings. There is one generation per year in Canada.
It feeds on leaves of many trees so you could put it out on a tree and let it finish getting ready for winter.
