Gooey stuff

What is this stuff? I found it along the Tatlayoko Road. It was very gooey.

It came from some kind of insect---possibly a beetle! There are eggs inside!

I'd like to hear from a scientist on this. One of the guys from NCC said it is a slime mold and it can be kept in a terrarium by feeding it oatmeal. I wasn't sure whether or not to believe him.

Here's a link: http://www.google.ca/search?q=slime+mold&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=jdw&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&prmd=ivns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=plwGTvXVD4jViAL12rjYDQ&ved=0CDYQsAQ&biw=1206&bih=719

It could be a mold or a weird fungues of some sort. One thing's for sure though, I would not want to grow mold in my house, even if it is in a terrarium.
