Those centipedes used to be all over the place in my basement. Never knew they were poisonous.

hahaha noo! i mean, we dont get any of those weird bugs with three thousand feet! what's on the first picture? |
centipedes are poisonous?
motherfucker. |
That's just a house centipede. I didn't know about them til we moved, and we only moved about 30 minutes away, so it must be cause the house is older or...something. Apparently they're really common. The first time I saw one I had no idea what it was, though.
They're poisonous, but that size I don't think can do much. It's these fuckers you have to look out for.  |

Centipede vs. Praying Mantis
That would be a site to behold. I live in California. They're all imported pets, though. That first centipede is the only thing I find naturally here. |

:eek: ZORAK!! |

Zorak isn't that truly evil. |

The centipede would totally CRUSH the mantis...

The guy said the mantis put up a fight. Maybe a smaller centipede...

No, the figure stayed at a distance so I couldn't see it's face properly. I think it was a he. Don't know really. |

It was a jack russell called rambo. I think he shat himself more than I did. That guy holding the centipede in his hand is lucky it's feeding on a scorpion. Those things are nasty and can give you a very painful bite. I'm not afraid of many creatures but he's got balls to do that! |
Actually the venom from one of those babies can kill ya... ;)

And how! They have a strong grip too. |
spiders with big torsos freak me out. I'm pretty sure, i'd run away, if I saw one at the length of my thumb or bigger. That could be topped though by a spider, which actually made noises . .. . Imagina that. Do they make noises?
|
PS, i think it was acousticrock87 who said that the poison from a milipede/centipede is nothing to worry about because of the size...
black widows are as big as my thumb nail, and they can kill you. |
well,the most venomous animal of all is a little frog,if i recall orrectly...you touch it,you die.no need to bite or anything.

I'm scared by this thread, i can't stand insects.
I once had a dream when i was 7 or 8 years old, i was in a coffin and of course everything was black, i couldn't hear anything except me breathing and even that was hard, i was begining to suffocate and i couldn't wake up, i knew i was there to stay. I was buried alive even if i didn't know what that means at the time. I could barely move and couldn't escape, with what could have been several meters of soil above me. I was experiencing what it is to be dead and this experience shaped how i relate to death even to this day. But what amazes me the most is that i was so young then, 7 or 8, and the situation felt so real, feeling the wood around me, the pressure of the soil above, the silence, the heat, the moist... How could i know all that ? Quote:
Wow, i don't believe in spirits but child molesters exist ! I think you were very lucky... |
Yeah the poison dart frog is highly poisonous, but that centipede is no normal centipede, it's a giant orange leg centipede, Amazonian, and its poison is enough to cause severe swelling, chills, fever and weakness... :)

No, i just googled it to see what it was. I experienced something like that a few times but i was dreaming it. It never happened to me while being awake, that must be very disturbing...
edit : well, i found a survey on the web about that, i'm gonna take it cause some questions relate to things i experienced, like dreaming i'm awake when i'm not ! |

amazonians put the frog's poison on the tips of their spears to aid in their hunting. |
actually i was thinking about a frog species that lives in australia,not in the amazon...i'll google for it,hope i'll find something interesting.

here is a nice link.
http://www.g-kexoticfarms.com/funanimalfacts.html what's the difference between "most venomous" and "most poisonous" animal??? the golden poison frog is the one i was thinking of....i guess (?!?) |
Venom has to be injected. Poison can affect you through contact. So ya, the frog would be poisonous. I've seen a show about Sea Wasps. They had something else on it, though, that was way more interesing. It was some kind of dealy sea snail. Crazy. I hate the ocean.
Found it. Cone snail. Apparently they can kill humans.  |
