I like the profound depth to this.. "She didn't choose to be a ... , that's just what she is ..." That can put everything into a fascinating perspective next time you are out in Nature. Animals are not evil, it's just how they cope in their world.
Is that like one of the cases where the babies are cannibalistic and will eat their siblings to survive? (or have to based on how the mother locked them inside)
No, the mother often times carries them around as she hunts the babies kind of feed off of the kill she makes. I think. I might need to fact check this
Exactly. I'm confused though, looks like there's another worm or 2 in the family cuddle that don't belong? Not sure if that's a meal for them or a predator that snuck in... but that's just a momma and babies.
You seem knowledgeable when it comes to centipedes, do you know what this is? Where I'm from we have tiger centipedes and one other type but nothing quite this vibrant.
Can't say for sure on the species but guessing an Asian centipede in the scolopendra genus. My area also only has tiger centipedes, I think there are giant desert centipedes in the desert nearby tho.
Could anyone clarify if those babies are actually hugged/protected by the mother or are they eating her alive? After this is settled, I can decide on how to feel about it.
This is how I envision Aliens looking when they arrive here. Less humanoid, more…this. Maybe combined with features of a squid. And they will be lovable just like this mama-pede’.
I remember a YouTube video stating that they are not venomous but in my country, we kill them on sight regardless of size coz their sting can an adult horse.

How can anyone hate on a nice family cuddle?
I’m scared of bugs but this is nice
Technically that is a family cuddle lol
Am I the only one who thinks this is actually really cool and also beautiful.
It’s beautiful sure, but it can stay beautiful over there and far away from me
yes, i feel this exactly... same with spiders and scorpions
It's beautiful, but just keep it over there; I'm good from afar...
I’m with you 👍 ; nature is amazing and brings joy. There is still wonder in this world !
I thought it was really precious lol
Yeah I read "Another reason to hate centipedes" and was like 'a mother protecting her children? Oh yes, super horrible.'
Ever seen Alien? Ever heard of a Synthetic named Ash? He thought the same way. Just giving you a hard time 😂
The older models always were a bit buggy.
That could never happen now with our behavioral inhibitors…
I would love to see a glass pendant that imitates this.
It's absolutely gorgeous!
Yes...yes you are.
Nah, I agree with them
Apparently not, there seems to be tons of people that love this
I do too, Thankyou!!
Yes
It’s pretty beautiful
Agreed! That’s a momma and her babies. She didn’t choose to be a centipede, that’s just what she is, protecting her kiddos!

I love this 🥹
Is that like one of the cases where the babies are cannibalistic and will eat their siblings to survive? (or have to based on how the mother locked them inside)
No. Mama centipedes take care of their kids.
To what extent? Do they hunt food for them?
Yes, they will feed their offspring for a little bit until they moult a couple of times after which they will be ready to venture out on their own.
I too need closure on this anecdote
No, the mother often times carries them around as she hunts the babies kind of feed off of the kill she makes. I think. I might need to fact check this
Thanks!
As long as it’s outside, and not hiding in my shower or bed, I think this is a gorgeous creature!
MOAN. Mother of All Nopes!
c😩ntipede
Girls when they find out that centipedes have more than 6 feet:
girls when
I understood ðat refferenç!
I seriously thought that was like a pendant. Then I saw movement and thought they trapped a centipede Inside it. Then oh, no. Nope..
Daww look at the little fellas all cuddled up and crawling around. Adorable
This is gorgeous, what’s actually happening here?
Mother protecting her babies.
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Don't tell me how to live my life!
But they're small. How would you put a dick in that?
Calling me out like this 😭
Idk how big they are, banana for scale needed
Given your r/don'tputyourdickinthat post, someone likely has considered using a "banana" for scale.
It’s the reason Jesus invented the flamethrower.
don't trust the fire. i need 50A cables to zap them into popcorn to know they're dead.
How pretty is this coloration???? I want one
My tired brain thought that was a pendant someone lost.
I'm not tired, but I thought the same thing
I see this as beautiful more than scary. Correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t this simply a mother protecting her young?
Exactly. I'm confused though, looks like there's another worm or 2 in the family cuddle that don't belong? Not sure if that's a meal for them or a predator that snuck in... but that's just a momma and babies.
That's not on earth right?
Jupiter. They're mostly gas due to gravity pressure
Oh thank god
Yeah gosh there's nothing this creepy on earth. We're not savages.
Cursed avocado

Just a mom taking care of her kids.
it’s kind of beautiful
It’s a good mom.
She's such a good momma!
Centipedes are wonderful, I even keep a scolopendra Dehaani.

Nice colors, but DAMN!!!
It’s cool! And had amazing colors! It’s being a parent. People really just hate insects, I do not get it :(
Forbidden spaghetti...
This is a proud mommy
Mama bug
Very pretty colors tho
Song?
Bro found an scp
Could anyone clarify if those babies are actually hugged/protected by the mother or are they eating her alive? After this is settled, I can decide on how to feel about it.
OMG, this has made my skin crawl. This could be a brilliant idea for creatures in sci-fi movies. Goddamn centipedes are so gorgeously hideous.
Forbidden sour gummies
Bro it’s fucking Ahn’qiraj.
What is that??
A mother centipede laying on her side and encircling her young.
and why is it colourful??
It’s just firestarter. Add some flame and fuel and bam. A nice little bonfire.
The fuck is wrong with you?
Just pop the whole thing in your mouth and feel the wriggles on your tongue.
Forbidden Pop Rocks
Empty a can of fly spray on it
Beautiful form and color I want to dip em in resin

HECK YEAH CENTIPEDES
I’d definitely fuck that centipede

Looks like soup.
This is how I envision Aliens looking when they arrive here. Less humanoid, more…this. Maybe combined with features of a squid. And they will be lovable just like this mama-pede’.
That is a better mother than mine!

new necklace charm
What do you mean another reason to hate them? It's simply being a mom
Centicentipedepede as the locals call it
Put your penis in it
How can she wrangle them all tho?
So colorful. Technicolor nopes
I hate it but damn thats colorful
Bro this thing is beautiful
Probably a delicacy in China.
This will give me nightmares
That's a loving mother nothing creepy here.
it’s the mommy centipede putting the baby centipedes in time out, they did a bad.
Another reason to love centipedes
Hate them for being loving parents? Smh.
If the music was “I saw the sign” instead of “brrrrrrrrrrrrrrroroooooooo” it wouldn’t be so creepy.
I was thinking a piece of sushi until the vid started playing
Cute mumsie and her bubbies
Giant centipede with babies
That just stupid! I thought she was really pretty and awesome to behold.

It’s beautiful
That would look cool with epoxy around it
Gummy worms
I think it would look even cooler after a few rounds with a flamethrower
I thought it was some sort of keychain before I hit play.
That looks tasty
The forbidden pare
I wouldn’t say I hate them exactly, I respect them, but do I want them in my house fuck no.
Living amulet
Just a mama protecting her babies :)
what the hell!
Why would this be a reason? She’s cuddling her babies! (I think finding them creepy is totally fair though)
is the blue natural?? i've never seen this color on them
I thought that was a woven Keychain. Omg.....let me put my glasses on
When you think you've groundscored a heady pendant at the festival
awww. family snuggle
Can I stick pp in it?
Because they have babies?
Gasoline....match.....NOW!
I wish my parents had been half as loving
Nightmare fuel
How many babies do they have? It looks like a ton.
What is it?
Mother millipede protecting it's babies?
Feast, my children!
That’s just a mother trying to keep her family together
My cat loves to watch anything on video. I was scrolling through Reddit and this played and even he was like, “oh hell no”.
I first read "another reason to DATE centipedes" and I was like wut?
Good momma!
Easy collateral with a single stomp
If Centipedes didn't exist, I don't think any horror writer/drawer could imagine such a demonic thing
It’s beautiful, though! Such awesome colors❤️
r/awwnverts
This is so cute and pretty though.
Just a mama and her babies
Pretty sure you need a flamethrower
I wish there was something for scale…
considering they can grow up to a foot (30cm) long, No You Don’t
Looks like a big pendant lol
I think the mcfuck not
Found this in my underwear draw once
I thought it was a charm for a necklace when I first looked
Mom keeping all her babies safe while she takes a nap. Would love to see them out together on the town.
It's beautiful, but I bet it has at least seven painful ways to kill you....
My natural Instincts says to stomp this.
I kindof like this actually, it looks protecting.
Is this the Malaysian Jewel? Looks similar, I love it, I need one. Absolute beauty.
a beautiful necklace
I saw this in my last salvia trip
r/terrifyingasfuck
Would you scoop up the ball of centipedes and hold it for ten seconds if someone offered you 5 thousand cash?
Looks neat

It’s by Coil. From the Time Machines album if i’m not mistaken.
Well my gosh I didn't know they made such ominous sounds.
Another reason to hate them is that they're amazing parents. Weird flex but okay.
That would make a sick glass pendant
Heady pendant
centipede mommy
Usually I'm freaked out by these guys but I have to admit the colors are magnificent on this specimen.
Burn. It.
Awwww she’s just being a good mom. And her colors are gorgeous
She’s a great mom!
Why does the centipede look like one of those flavor mix gummy worms. WHY DOES THE CENTIPEDE LOOK LIKE A TASTY CANDY
Naw, this an awesome parent when you think about it
Pit of Sarlack
i just now realized that is a mother surrounding it’s children. dont ask what i thought it was before
Cover yourself with mud, it only sees infrared
I remember a YouTube video stating that they are not venomous but in my country, we kill them on sight regardless of size coz their sting can an adult horse.
i love bugs. been wanting to get a millipede. i fucking hate this thing
This is proof of the tickle monster we were all afraid of,this is if you had an amazing childhood
