White-Marked Tussock Moth Caterpillar

A small (roughly 1 inch long) fuzzy caterpillar. He is yellow and white and with black antennae and defense mechanisms on his rear. He has four groups of 'bristles' on his back. His face is bright red.
Habitat:
They have a wide range.
Notes:
These caterpillars are venomous! There were a rather large number of them in one particular part of the swamp.
