Has anyone ever seen GFs eat anything other than passionvine?
The reason I'm asking is that I was looking at some seedlings that pop up under one of my oak trees and I found 3 large GF cats on the seedlings. Could they have been eating the leaves or just wandering to find a place to pupate? They were clear across the backyard from where the passionvine grows. The seedlings are only about 6 inches tall. And to find three of them right together...

Just wondering if anyone else has seen this?

thanks,
Terrie
