    Story tiem:

    I was eating sushi outside on my lunch break, and ofc a local wasp was buzzing around so I moved a chunk of tuna a bit away from me so it would feel safe to land. It landed, cut out an almost perfect square of tuna, hugged it with it’s legs and flew off. It was a bit like watching a cargo helicopter lifting up a container.

    Scolopendra subspinipes

    …the species is known by many common names, including jungle centipede, orange-legged centipede, Hawaiian centipede, and Vietnamese centipede.

    …it is also found on virtually all land areas around and within the Indian Ocean, all of tropical and subtropical Asia from Russia to the islands of Malaysia and Indonesia, Australia, South and Central America, the Caribbean islands, and possibly parts of the southern United States…

    I think it’s actually Scolopendra alternans because the one pictured has only 4 segments on it’s antennae, but subspinipes has many.

    Scolopendra alternans is a species group found in the whole Caribbean island and northern South America, with the Florida population reevaluated as a distinct species Scolopendra longipes.[1] They have also been reported as far north as Georgia.
