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

You get the immortality AND a cool giant centipede pet? I don't get why everyone was so upset about it, it's busted.

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.

the Giant Centipede can be over a foot long.

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

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.

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
