My brother and i live in Alaska and we were biking and we found a caterpiller on the road so we went home and got a jar and put it in it then it stopped moving and we thought it was dead then we thought it just needed more space so we put it in this big plastic tub and put a light on it and then a hour later it was partly a cocoon.. but we cant figure out what kind of caterpiller it is and we dont know if it is a cocoon or its just dead please answer

sounds like it has started the changing process, just let it be , and in a few wks it will be a butterfly, or moth,

Get a picture of the butterfly/moth after it comes out of the cocoon when the time comes so that we can get a look at it! Hopefully there's an entymologist on board!
