I saw something like this the other day but with an electric blue thorn coming out the tail end. I was wondering what it would eventually become.

Thanks everyone :) I wish there was something to show the size of this guy...it was about 5" long and a good 1" thick. I used this guide to identify him....kinda neat site, some of the caterpillars they show what they will turn into.
