🐛 Every year as the leaves burn into their fall colors, Northeast Ohio celebrates a furry little friend native to the area — woolly bear caterpillars.

🍂 Created by late Fox 8 meteorologist Dick Goddard more than 50 years ago, Vermilion's Woollybear Festival boasts cute, fuzzy festivities like the 500 Caterpillar race, kids in woolly bear costumes vying for the Woollybear King & Queen and the Wonderful Wacky Woollybear Parade.��

🎉 Of course, Vermilion's Mayor Jim Forthofer and wife Sue (slide 5) got in on the festivities alongside residents of the woolly bear capitol of Ohio.
