20. Puss Moth

Puss Moth

When you see a beautiful bug, you’ll want to pet it. We certainly share that desire over here. However, we’ll have to fight those urges if we see a puss moth. These moths are found in North America, and they’re covered in poisonous hairs. The larva’s gorgeous fur is, in fact, a concealed collection of spikes that are meant to maim and kill. When these are pricked, they produce an excruciating agony in the region where the stings were inserted. The agony will only get worse with time. Difficulty breathing, as well as other symptoms such as headache and queasiness, might be caused by your body’s reaction. We’d advise you to avoid it.
