A particular species of the caterpillar lives at an altitude over 2.500 metres in the Himalayas.  It uses prominent colour to inform would be predators of its in edibility. In the event that an inexperienced or adventurous bird did eat the caterpillar, it would probably vomit it soon after,  and subsequently desist from attacking similar species in future.

It is to progress in the human sciences that we must look to undo the evils which have resulted from a knowledge of physical world hastily and superficially 

acquired by population unconscious of the changes in themselves that the new knowledge has imperative. The road to a happier world than any known 

in the past lies open before us if atavistic destructive passions can be kept in leash while the necessary adaptations are made. Fears are inevitable in time, 

but hopes are equally rational and far more likely to bear good fruit. We must learn to think rather less of the dangers to be avoided than of the good

that will lie within our grasp if we can believe in it and let it dominate our thoughts.
