Is this leaf moving or static? Because this would be pretty advanced stuff. You should probably make it static at first at least.
I started out just trying to make a few basic games, like 2D platformer, top down shooter, Pong, Space Invaders, a car driving game and such.
You can take the 3D leaf object and give it a mesh collider, and it should make it possible for the catepillar to move around on it. Animating it is probably best done in a 3D program like Blender, but if it already has an animation then it should be pretty much drag and drop.
Here is a small video about important a 3D object into unity with an animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTTULrKGVQI
But you will probably want to have a look here: https://unity3d.com/learn
Its the official Unity 3D tutorials. For what you are making I would recommend looking into this one: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/survival-shooter-tutorial
It has a lot about animations, adding sound effects, controls, AI enemies and such.
