The caterpillar with long black hairs on its body is likely a woolly bear caterpillar.
The Yellownecked caterpillar is yellow with a black head. This particular caterpillar also likes to eat the leaves of the white oak tree.
the Buff-Tip Moth caterpillar has black stripes, yellow stripes, and fine white hairs or spikes coming off of it. These are generally about 2.5 inches long and eat oak, maple, elm, and hazel leaves.
Long hairs can suddenly appear on the body due to hormonal changes, genetics, or certain medical conditions.
(BY COMP_UTER15776)there are lots. it depends where you are from. oh, and wait until it hatches if you can, then, if you own it, study the butterfly or moth that emerges, but be patient, and make sure it gets fed!(BY COMP_UTER15776)
Random long hairs on the body can occur due to genetics, hormonal changes, or aging. These hairs are usually normal and can be managed through grooming methods like trimming or removal.
I'm not sure if what you are looking at is a worm per se. It sounds more like a caterpillar which is the larvae of either a butterfly or moth. Try looking up different types of caterpillars since they tend to be quite colorful and can have hairs that stand out on various areas of their segmented bodies. That sounds kind of like a wooly bear caterpillar to me. wooly bears are often black with redish fuzz and black fuzz. (3 stripes) They become Isabella moths.
I've seen some caterpillars all over Oregon Sunshine (eriophyllum lanatum), but these were grub-like caterpillars with a few long hairs (orange and black stripes, of course). I'm not sure if they were the same caterpillar?

From the description, I would suspect a caterpillar - that's a butterfly in the larva stage. Careful with those hairs: the hair of some caterpillars can give you nasty "burns" you if you touch them.
Random long white hairs on the body can be caused by a decrease in melanin production as we age, leading to the hair losing its color and appearing white.

Random long hairs on the body can be caused by hormonal changes, genetics, or certain medical conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
