The Tanzanian Giant Millipede

Many millipedes are quite docile and may safely be kept as pets and handled without risk of injury. The giant African millipede (Archispirostreptus gigas) is a common pet. These can be found at pet stores for reasonable prices. Sometimes very similar millipedes can be bought under the name Lophostreptus rutilans but in most cases it is just Archispirostreptus gigas. With the proper caging and feeding, pet millipedes can live up to about 7 years and grow to be as long as 15 inches.

Some kind of adorable spider!

The praying mantis! Not all that cute, but deffinately cool.

The cuttlefish! Nature's master of disguise and relative to other sneaky tentacled ambush predators, the squid and octopus. Highly intelligent and adorable, these little guys should be called cuddlefish. Some species are poisonous, but most can be an interesting addition to a salt water acquarium.


What kind of creepy-crawlies do you enjoy, or at least find interesting?

    Millipedes are too cuddly, despite some species ability to produce hydrogen cyanide gas through tiny pores in their shell as a defense mechanism.

    Praying mantises are just about the coolest bugs ever.

    There needs to me more TV shows/games/mascots where a mantis the main character, or the villain, or a mantis themed superhero/villain.

    Although I hated that twin mantis boss in Jet Force. Seriously took me over a year to beat those guys.

    One time I caught a cricket at school. I was waiting for a teacher to be done with something. So than I started to pluck it's legs off. I did that until it had no legs and was just a torso. I felt really bad

    I was about to fall asleep one night and then I heard a cricket chirp. It was somewhere in my basement.

    I spent 2 hours tracking the fucker until I found it hiding inside of metal tube in my closet.

    Did I smash the fucker?

    Oh God yes.
