Odd looking caterpillar, is it carrying cocoons on its back?

The larvae of Lymantriid moths usually have dense hair tufts on their back for preventing predators, such as lizards and birds.

Dear Tiomanese,

I have not yet prepared to upload my catalog of adult Lymantriid moth images taken in the past, but you can briefly refer some websites for the info of this species:
gaga.jes.mlc.edu.tw/new23/9410/007.htm
(Noted that the avaliable genus name of this species is "Olene")

When I upload the related info, I will connect with you.

PS. Your photo lighting is well :)

Cheers
