I found this wooly bear type caterpillar partially embedded in the dust of a trail. I think somebody might have stepped on him, but the deep, fine sand had saved him from being squished. When I came upon him, I thought his curled up body was some kind of pine cone or something.
I carried him in my hand until I found a safe place to release him.
