Title: Giant carnivorous centipedes from the Amazon Post by: Dr. Whom on November 28, 2006, 03:29:04 PM And poisonous too! And quick enough to catch bats! Why hasn't anyone made a movie about these?

Now, that is one big centipede! I cannot even imagine one that large; nor would I want to feel the pain of being bitten by one. Had a much smaller centipede bite me some years ago and it hurt.
I was amused to notice who narrated the Google video clip that showed a centipede catching a bat. David Attenborough, is there anyone else who can match him as a nature narrator? |
