The centipede is 13 inches (35 centimeters) long

and dwells in total darkness, in a cave in Venezuela.

It lives by eating small bats

 

It is early morning: bedtime for bats. The bats are returning to their cave where they will pass the daylight hours hanging from the ceiling. The movie shows the centipede as it is climbing up the wall of the cave and thence out onto the ceiling, where it waits for a bat to fly past.

 

 

The movie shows the centipede catch a bat in flight.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh monster!

That does it, I'm calling for a mamallian war against centipedes.

I call General!

Whoa! Thanks for sharing...

Yipe. I wonder how hard it would be to squish one of those suckers when they sneak inside.

Reminds me of those presumptuous praying mantises:

 

 

I'm sorry, but invertebrates have no business eating mammals and birds.

What... is... that mantis... holding?... ???

 

Anyway.

That centipede/bat movie makes it look smaller somehow, maybe, because its lack of colour. The other one with the mouse is more impressive. Really impressive. (DON'T LOOK, if you're soft-hearted!)

 

Weird thing is i was afraid of small spiders that could do me absolutely no harm, but i'd even keep one of those murderous centipedes as a pet.

I like their colours.

The mantis is holding a hummingbird it grabbed out of the air.

Oh, that's nothing; Pacific giant octopi have been filmed catching, killing and eats small sharks when kept with them in aquaria.

As Mokele mentioned:

I think the snake and egg video tops them all, it's just plain wrong.

I thought the giant centipede eating a mouse was a bit better:

Jesus Christ, that thing is enormous.

That's what i was talking about, but it's smaller than the one with the bat.
