Giant centipede eating mouse.

"A giant centipede, scolopendra gigantea robusta, killing and eating a mouse. This specimen was not yet full grown but as you can see, it was already an impressive size."

Where are those fuckers endemic? Remind me never to go there.

That said, I saw a video of a tank of pirhanas eating a live mouse, and it was worse than this one. I'd post the link but I hate it so much that I refuse to google for it.

Okay, I admit it. I'm a mammalist. I have an irrational preference for cute fuzzy mammals. I don't like it when they lose to things with too many legs.

And immediately after this video was shot Sigourney Weaver showed up and killed it, right? RIGHT? Because I'm not going to sleep unless that fucking thing is DEAD.

I will name my nightmares after this.</i>

That is a hefty centipede. Even the little 1" long mofos that colonized the rotting stump in my yard when I was a kid freaked me out.

Centipede!

The giant millipedes are kind of cute, though.

I like the fact that the "YouTube is down" page features a guy trying to assemble an IKEA desk. Jerker series, I think.

A similar one lived in my backyard when I lived in the outskirts of Tucson, Arizona. Mine (and I use the term loosely) was Scolopendra heros</a>, the Giant Sonoran Desert Centipede (aka Giant North American Centipede).

last time I caught one of the biggish ones from around here (Texas Redhead) I put it in this bucket and it ran around in circles, making this really creepy noise. I tend to really like bugs and insects, even the dangerous ones (which I run into far too often), but the big centipedes are pretty damn freaky to me still. I actualy should save any that I find now and take them to a professor here in town who's using the venom as part of a cure for arthritis pains, apparently.

You should be scared by the owner, not this poor thing

(Link)

This is just a poor centipede and poor mouse, all in a fish tank. The monster that owns that tank uses a feather to push the mouse to creature (just watch the second movie). I'm really scared now by the fact that I share this small world with this monster.

You must not have seen the feather when I pushed you toward LJ not too long ago ...

You're thinking of a gianter centipede

(Link)

When I first heard of this, I thought it was a giant-centipede-eating mouse. This is not what I expected.

I refuse to watch the full video.

trepanation

(Link)

I've managed to keep myself from following this link and
watching the associated video, but I am reminded of the time
someone sent me a message about trepanation that upset me
for a few days.

Ugh, just that picture is enough.
