Large beetle grub (likely a scarab beetle larva)

Usually in soil, compost, or decaying wood; this larva was found moving across a hard surface.

Many scarab grubs feed on decaying plant material or roots; diet depends on the species.

C-shaped, pale larvae typically remain underground and develop through several molts before pupating. The image does not show enough detail to identify the species reliably.

Generally harmless to people. Some species recycle decomposing organic matter, while root-feeding species can damage lawns or crops.
