Why do catepillars try to cross the road? I walk 7-9 miles 3-4 days a week to get fit since I pinched my Sciatic nerve a year ago. And invariably on my walks I see catepillars trying to cross the rural road. It's always in the same places on the walk and always a few are starting out across the road.
If I put them back in the grass or bushes on the shoulder they turn around and go back to the road. If I put them on the other side of the road, they turn around and go back to the road. And invariably I find dead catepillars on the road from the heat or tires.
So why do catepillars cross the road if it's not to get to the other side?
