What kind of caterpillar is this?

This thread from 2018

Just found this on the hood of my car. I think the big end is its face.

A green one.

Looks a bit like a Luna Moth caterpillar, how big is it? What sort of trees do you have near where it was found?

Not a D9. They are huge.

I agree, looks like a Luna moth.

It would be interesting to see what it turns into

What a luna moth caterpillar turns into

Eat some. If you die, it was a poisonous one. 

In reply to Mndsm :

My entomologist dad says its a slug caterpillar and they do sting. 

I brushed up against a similar beast, the saddleback. Was mowing next to a bush and brushed my arm across one. I remember not being real happy about it. 

Dad thinks its a yellow shouldered slug.  looking at the googles, think it might be a nasons slug. 

Umm...

Its a big, fat caterpillar.  Duh.

Came here expecting bulldozers. Was not disappointed.

Literally watching “a very hungry caterpillar” with my 3 year old son right now. Awesome.

20 years ago when my parents had there house built the excavator had an Italian copy of a D7 he let me drive. That was cool to a 14 year old me. 

It's not a human one at least

I think it's called Heimlich:
