I came across this caterpillar on a fishing trip 3 weeks ago in northern Saskatchewan, Jan Lake, Canada. It was about 40mm long, and I found it wandering, so no idea what its host plant was. Thanks for any help. Tim Attachments:

I think I narowed it down to a tussock moth (Dasychira ) posibly the northern pine tussock moth (Dasychira plagiata)

Dasychira plagiata and Dasychira manto are very similar and both are pine feeders.
What part of North America was the larva found?
