Evergreen Bagworm

This species can be destructive in some areas due to, as Mark stated, human intervention. Humans have planted evergreens in large, concentrated populations in some areas for commercial or aesthetic uses. Such areas can be a haven for this species to reproduce and produce much more offspring than a "usual" native population, making predators of this species unable to control the rising population. This rise in population results in the destruction of trees, where before the trees would only be eaten a little.

awesome spot!

:)) I am sorry for those words Gilma, I think its our tendency. If we are put on the right place we destruct it and loose it, but if we are put in the wrong place we will work hard and make it a HEAVEN. :))

Yes, ChiefRedEarth, it disturbed me when those words are said, destructive/ pest!! To whom and why!? : (

I have a nearly similar spotting, could someone identify it please. :) http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/37487045

:)) Gilma the most beautiful creation is the most destructive- MAN. In our eyes all species are pests. :))

Usually only by human interference. When it is taken out of it's natural range or natural habitats have been over modified :-(

How can something this beautiful be destructive!!??

Please consider adding this spotting to the Animal Architecture mission at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8082378

Awesome! Sadly this species can be quite destructive in some areas.
