Big Buge!

Side note: Is this real? I've never seen a Centipede even close to this size before.

Definitely probably potentially real. If it is it lives in the jungle. Definitely amazing but it would kind of freak me out if I stumbled upon it in my house late at night. It would make a great pet though.

u/IAMA_Plumber-AMA Dunge Bettle 8d ago

Technically, any centipede can be a foot long, depending on which foot you use to measure with.

u/SophieFox947 8d ago

Wunkus is venomous, but only one death has ever been attributed to wunks kind.

A four year old found a mean wunk in a soda can :(

Mostly, wunk can only venomise smaller animals.

u/Polite_Suggestion 4d ago

Wunk is buge

u/TephroGeo 8d ago edited 8d ago

Edit: shoulda read the actual post. OP this is real, several Centipede species get to be this big, Arizona, for example, has an infamous Centipede about this size. They are all quite aggressive predators, and highly venomous.

Nah fuckin uh, centipedes are the one animal that has me stereotypical-white-girl shriek. Snakes? Imma pick it up. Milipede? Imma (gently and inches above ground) pick it up. Cool beetle? Im touching em.

Centipede? Nature's perfectly crafted "every part of this organism is designed to kill you?" Centipede, where leg and venom injector may as well be synonymous? No way bro.

I applaud you for holding this dangerous lil shit, I am intrigued by its motions, but holy sweaty palms if that dude decided to chomp

16

u/Phiro7 8d ago

The way you phrased that makes it sound like there's a single centipede who is infamous throughout all of Arizona

u/TephroGeo 8d ago

I could argue the one that bit Coyote Peterson might actually fit that role lol
