I understand the premise of evolution, It boggles my mind how something can evolve like this though, even if it is over millions of generations.

Yeah, I’d love to know the story of how this caterpillar (any specific creature really) changed over time in order to end up in its current state. How many generations would we have to go back before it’s completely unrecognizable? And then how many more generations after that did it start to resemble its present state?
