Saved this larvae from the up coming storm and the cold weather outside. Small guy was crawling on a busy sidewalk and I decided to keep them until I get home and the weather clears up. What kind of larvae is this?
Can’t tell much from the photo but seems like it’d be a caterpillar.
Caterpillars have very specific host plant needs and will often eat only one type of plant. Probably best to put it somewhere sheltered near where you found it, so it can go back to its host plant and eat. If that’s not possible, I’d get close-up pics of it and submit it to some sort of bug ID blog to find out exactly what it is and what it eats, so you know either where to release it or what to feed it.
