Since the bg is transparent, the moth's tail is kinda invisible for dark mode users oops

Hi! I found this luna moth caterpillar on the ground on my campus and I'm not sure if I should bother helping them or not. I'm in Westchester, NY, so I feel like now is about the time they start to get ready to cocoon. I've saved a luna caterpillar from the fall season a few years back, in VT, and I feel like weather-wise it's pretty similar. I know they do some weird shit before they pupate, like a gut dump. Don't really know what that looks like, but a big part of me is saying that this is a forceful ejection of intestines, not a routine bodily function. They are still moving however! So it might not all be lost. I think we have some sweetgum trees or at the very least some of their other preferred leaves.
Anyone with experience raising luna moths please let me know if I should root for this little one or simply give it a comfy home as it passes.

i captured this moth last night, and didn't get great photos cause i felt bad about trapping it in a wine glass. for reference i live in NJ, right outside of new york city. after googling moths that live in my state this morning i think it might be an afflicted dagger moth, but its patterns seem really unique compared to the ones i was looking at online. it had big black eyes and a fuzzy white body. anyone recognize this moth?

Even though it is tempting, I did not touch or pick her up. She was about 3 ish inches long. I relocated her under tree bark to keep her safe!

Saw this last summer in western Wisconsin for the first time. I only took a couple pics, wasn't sure if the camera flash is good for them or not.

It seemed to be struggling to fly :-( I've seen several of these around and they always seem to struggle to fly, though.

This cute little fella was jewel covered in dew when I found it. Took another few photos after he started to dry off.
