[QUOTE="CosbyArt, post: 292188, member: 8168"] Wow, 8 different species already shown, are they past or current species of yours? :) It is amazing that you physically handle them, I did a few times as a kid until I was bit one too many times and haven't since. ;) I have learned although deaths from a bite are rare, and it is usually someone with a allergy to the venom that has the most trouble. Although after stumbling too close to various bee/wasps nests through the years (primarily yellow-jackets as kid), I have no desire to have a venomous "bee" sting from a pet lol. :D Personally the Scolopdendra morsitans (Tanzanian Redheaded Centipede) stands out from the others, I guess due to the bright coloration. I did a bit of searching on the species and stumbled [URL="http://ispub.com/IJEM/2/2/12582"]onto this article[/URL]. Seems the red isn't just for show on that species. Amazing collection though and thanks for sharing. [IMG]http://i990.photobucket.com/albums/af26/CosbyArt/Smiley/thumbs-up2.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
