Hawk moth's caterpillar

Day 11 of movement control order (lockdown): I went back to my garden & found this Hawk moth's caterpillar is eating the leaf of Amorphophallus. The larvae (caterpillar) got a long horn near the end of the body and it has large eye spots on the thorax and abdominal segments. The large eye spots may assist in warding off predators.
