Prominent Defense
Uploaded: January 04, 2012
A similar version this Black-spotted Prominent Caterpillar and a Crab Spider was posted in 2008. (...entitled, "The Duel") It's rewarding when we encounter naturally-occurring interactions between species. This little was captured in the field as it unfolded and comprised less than 1 1/2" of real estate. Since both combatants seemed unscathed and went their separate ways, the fight appeared to have ended in a draw.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
