David Attenborough Befriends a Millipede | Nature Bites

David Attenborough gets hands-on in this clip from Micro Monsters, as he makes friend with one of natures creepiest crawlies: the millipede
From David Attenborough's Micro Monsters: Over the course of three episodes, Sir David Attenborough takes viewers deep into the world of bugs. Pioneering macroscopic techniques allow Attenborough to explore in unparalleled detail the intricate, sophisticated behaviours of fascinating creatures and the complexity of the environments they build and inhabit, in a world normally hidden from the human eye. Each of the three episodes explore a different aspect of the little-known lives of insects, from the deceptive defensive mechanisms harboured by spiders and scorpions, to the creation of colonies and how social arrangements develop.

Attenborough is and will remain my favorite naturalist and narrator of all time.

Steve Irwin?

For anyone interested, the species in order of appearance are probably...
Spiropoeus fischeri (large black with red legs)
Telodeinopus aoutii (green/olive/brown thin, speckled legs)

David Attenborough is the best! I love millipedes! Once found a wild one crossing a busy trail leading from the parking lot to the entrance of a renaissance fair. A little fatter than a pencil, so not huge like this one. Picked it up before someone could step on it and put it on the edge of my velvet cloak. Named him Velcro and he became my animal familiar for my character. XD He stuck with me for the whole day and when I was leaving I left him in the woods. Still miss that little guy, he was awesome. Have always wanted a pet familiar I could do that with, but most of these conventions/fairs don't allow pets outside of service animals.

Thanks to David

Excellent work yet again

[@johnmagsarmdia3940]

Though Millipede like that is slow and don't bite; note they are scary in the way that when provoked they excrete a foul smelling and skin burning liquid from their segments. We that live in the rural areas are aware not to mess with that creature.
