I would:

1) Make me a terrarium and put this one in there.
2) Would make sure I never get stung by this madagascar giant centipede. :p
3) Think about how I am going to get mice to feed this one. :p

petco orget a bagof corn and wait for wait for the wee terds...

I still think camelback crickets are one of the worst bugs. They scare the crap outta me.

will note that the guy who took this pic no longer handles the pedes like this.......he to has decided it it isnt worth the risk, these critters are WAAAAAY to unpredictable to do this with
 
  • #33
yup! yup! these things are really unpredicatble. I have read that as well. But they are pretty majestic IMO.

lol! rattler.... did he get bit by one?/ lol! apparently this is among the most painful bites ever. it even outweighs a tarantula, scorpion bite.
 
  • #34
dont remember.....the forum he belongs to i visit infrequently.....he posted the above pic and several others a year or so ago........when i was on the site a few weeks ago i ran across a post saying he no longer does this......not sure what happened. weither he got bit or saw first hand a bite to one of his buddies....
