    Yes, this is one of the coolest among the Bagworms.
    I wonder how they know to cut the pieces from smaller to bigger or bigger to smaller to construct the pyramid :D Posted 5 years ago

      I think that bagworms continue to add to the front of their cases as they grow. So, maybe it is a function of the caterpillar making a continually larger opening as it grows? Posted 5 years ago, modified 5 years ago
