Monarch
Monarch caterpillars are pure munching machines, they stripped several Butterfly Milkweed plants in a couple of days. Monarch Butterflies lay their eggs on the Milkweed and thats what the the caterpillars eat when they hatch from the egg. Milkweed sap apparently is poisonous to most things so that why the Monarch caterpillars have evolved to eat it to protect them from predators (or something along those lines).
