What animal has 2,000 muscles?

Lots of Factoid Sites state that a caterpillar has 2,000 muscles. I'm not sure how accurate this answer is as I've never actually counted them myself. :-) Oct 11 00, 4:40 AM

The average caterpillar has 2,000 muscles, which means there are other caterpillars with more than 2,000 muscles. Humans have 792 distinct muscles while caterpillars have as many as 4,000 separate muscles. http://www.stephentvedten.com/22_Caterpillars.pdf http://www.ccehp.org/pdf%20files/caterpillars.pdf Jan 25 08, 11:05 AM
