Gusto Vargas, director of the park's botanical area, explains that this species of caterpillar particularly loves the taste of this tree. Therefore, they don't chop down the tree, which would only cause the caterpillars to lose the object of their adoration and move on to the large trees that surround it.
公園植物區負責人古斯都說明：這種毛蟲特別喜好這棵樹的美味，因此他們不砍掉樹，以免毛蟲失去了最愛，反而轉向周遭的大樹。
