| I've never broken a cocoon open to see what the inside looks like, but it kind of looks like a cocoon to me. |

| Looks like a Luna moth's cocoon, but I hope not! |

| Definitely a moth cocoon. Could be any number of large moths, e.g. luna moth, Cecropia, Polyphemus, etc. They're actually fun to bring inside and watch emerge. |
