Help Identifying Catapiller

I didn’t get this thing out of the garden but it hitched a ride on my shirt till my inside forearm found it!  Holy cow bees and wasp have nothing on this thing!  Lit my butt up!!!  Did a thorough google search with absolutely no luck.  It’s in an eggshell after I brushed it off my shirt w a paper towel.

        • Here where I live, we call them sack worms. Big silk nests in trees.

            • If it was me I would drown it after I ran a hook through it.

              • I’ve drown my fair share of baits,  but this one I’m not messing with.  Still got marks on my arm from getting stung.
