Not everyone is calm enough to snap pictures of a huge horror animal curled up in a bucket like this guy.
We are all scared. Some people may have slightly irrational fears, like fear of mirrors, fear of X, more fear of heights, fear of the dark … For many people, insects can be a fear. consternation. Not only because of how they look or the way they move, even the sound they make can scare people on the hair at the back of their necks.
Granted, you’re not afraid of bugs and bugs, but if you walk through the scene below like this guy, you’ll definitely be afraid.
The photo captured a horrified scene in a Reddit user’s home.
A user on the Reddit social network shared his story that a lot of people also get goosebumps. One day, he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the bucket kept in his house. Decided to find out the truth, but he didn’t expect to have a horror moment.
According to Reddit user ivealreadyreddit, the terrible thing he found in the bucket was a female centipede from the Geophilomorpha family.

These multi-legged animals have around 27 knots and can move extremely quickly using their long and long legs. And despite their lack of eyes, the array of sensory organs lining the body helps them transform into professional hunters.
They also have venom bites which cause terrible pain, as well as swelling and fever in the person bitten. Although the bites are quite serious, no one has died from the bite of a ground centipede, at least for now.

Not only that, the bite of the centipede contains venom and can cause serious injury.
For the giant centipede in the photo taken in Thailand, it is actually curled up and hugging its young, protecting them from harm. This act of mothering may scare you a little less and not want to take the insecticide spray on the other animal right away if you are there. Although we often witness a mother’s love for her children in the animal kingdom, insects are rare.
The female centipede will embrace her offspring and protect them from fungi until they can become independent.
Not all insects have this beautiful act of motherhood.
A female ground millipede can lay around 15 to 60 eggs and usually cares for the baby against fungal attack. They lick and watch the eggs until they hatch and the young are ready to live on their own.
