u heard about doomed by the narrative now get ready for doomed by my mum and her coven of space eugenics cult sisters thru their 10k year long breeding program
made these studying cat genetics over the past 2 weeks!
i felt like there weren't enough visual guides of cat genetics so i went ahead and made some simple ones, my main references were Sparrow's Garden the website, Sparrow's Garden the blog, Messybeast, and The Little Carnivore.
Found this little fella (around 2 cm long) on my fence post. I think the head is on the right hand side as this part was moving around.
I did some research and am pretty certain this is the larvae of a Mottled Cup Moth. I thought it was pretty boldly sitting out in the open until I read that it's coloured hairs STING!
The adult is brown and non distinctive, in stark contrast to its larvae.
