The giant desert centipede (Scolopendra heros) is the largest centipede native to North America at up to 8” in length. Although they live in the desert, they spend much of their time underground or under rocks, protected from the sun and harsh elements. They are venomous and have modified front legs just behind the head called forcipules that are used to inject venom; these are visible in the video. #MoreThanAZoo | Phoenix Zoo

The mother will guard her eggs and the young for more than a month until they are ready to move around on their own. During this time, she barely hunts for herself, but anything she does catch she will usually share with her babies. Giant red-headed centipedes are native to Texas but rare around Fort Worth, being m

Meet our newest giant African millipede. This tiny, white, half inch long hatchling will grow up to 9 inches long like the adult in the video. Unlike their centipede cousins, millipedes cannot bite and instead will coil into a ball and secrete a toxin for defense. Keepers at the Cincinnati Zoo have recently had success breeding these amazing arthropods behind the scenes at The World of the Insect. | Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden
