The small caterpillar is Caligo eurilochus.

sieht eher nach einer Morphoart aus
Do you know which Morphos were in the butterflygarden?
I think it is M. peleides

The caterpillar does not belong to the genus Morpho but to the closely related genus Antirrhea.
It is also possible to see the foodplant on your photo which is a palmtree as well as the foodplant of most Antirrhea species.
But for me it is not possible to determine the species because you can not find pictures of the immature stages of every Antirrhea sp.
So maybe you can also find photos of the imagines or remember which of the species flew in the butterfly garden.
...and I think the little ones belong to the same species, so not Caligo eurilochus.
