This is a nutritious meat that sustained most homes in my home town during the 1983 crisis and military government austerity that led to famine. Its called "kánnì" in my l9cal language and I don't know what it's called in English. Do you know this creature and what is it called in your local language?

Please provide more info - where can I get some for myself? Are they butterfly larvae or something else?
Grand'am use to prepare efo-riro with those and I'd as well picked them all off and throw away!

This is one of my favorites. We call it wigu in Igbo language. Very nutritious and tasty when you fry it.

They're mostly found on the trees. The moment you start screaming weeeeeeeeh!! They will begin to vibrate on top of the trees and start falling from those trees.

I picked and ate those creatures alot when I was a teenager.
