Known One Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Came across this video today... which freaked me the fuck out... Its a video of a Giant Centipede (scolopendra gigantea robusta) killing and eating a mouse... I would have never believed such a centipede existed had I not seen the video... apparently the creature has a cyanide laced bite too... they bite people in some cases, giving them a really nasty toxic cyanide injection... sick shit really... I don't recommend the video at all... but for those who undoubtedly want to see it anyways Warning... this is disturbing... involves big centipede eating a mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nato Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Oh damn. That centipede is about 1ft long! Looks kinda cool but somehow makes me feel sick at the same time. I can just imagine being out camping and finding one of them in your sleeping bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.terra. Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 that is some scary shit how big can they grow? cant weta's become huge if they are fed right Hard to tell exactly how big they get, but here are a couple of articles I found: "The Peruvian Giant Centipede is indeed a giant, at maturity, they will reach a length of seven and a half to ten inches, some even measuring as long as a foot." Click here for the full article Then I found another article that said: "Rumored to be the largest centipede on earth! This is an old report of one that measured 17". In 2002, I've heard of a authentic report from a scientist of 25" !!! Not in the trade as the Galapagos Islands are protected. Max. length: 17"- 25" ? Range: Galapagos Islands, Pacific coast of Ecuador to Southern Peru and the Cook Islands." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when I was a wee young'n... we were at the beach.. somewhere in the coromandel.. we were sitting in this pool of water when a centipede floats rigth past me.. it was like swimming on top of the water That was creepy as! Jumped out of the water so fast.. didn't go swimming again for ages... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 You guys know that jumpy mouse probably didn't end up winning aye. It's like when your mum stopped Bambi before it got to the end of the tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Known One Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Yea, but given an enviroment which properly reflects a realistic terrain... such as outdoors... I think the mouse would have map-hacked his way outta danger... A lowly snake is no match for those Mouse Matrix steeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
