If they find one, they kill it. Why? It’s soft and icky like a worm, and the hairy ones can hurt your skin. I told them that American kids, if they are lucky enough to find one, might keep a caterpillar as a pet to see it grow into a beautiful butterfly.
“No way! A pet!??!”
They don't think butterflys are that cool either. Over here kids like beetles and drogonflies. Don’t even say the word centipede though; you will cause a tiny panic.
