| 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.
***I've grown very tired of reading posts
from people, who, despite being outraged by
it watch anyways, and then, in a fit of
internet bravado cannot resist the urge to
write some asinine comment. If you don't
like it, don't watch it.
For those that do appreciate the video and
have defended it -- thank you. All the
best.***

March 2006
For centuries, sailors have told tales of sea
monsters with massive tentacles. But it was
only recently that a giant squid was actually
filmed. One man has spent his life tracking
the elusive creatures.
When his large, powerful yacht slowed to a
virtual stop, Olivier de Kersauson knew he
had a problem. "I saw two arms, twice the
size of my arm, grabbing the rudder." A giant
squid had got caught in the propeller. "It
had a lot of power and started to shake the
boat." It was a sight Dr Steve O'Shea would
love to have witnessed. For over 30 years
he's been chasing the rare creatures. But
recently, he's become aware of a disturbing
trend. "Squids are incredibly good barometers
of environmental health", he explains. "If I
go back 10 years, I had 23 giant squids in
one year. Now, because of the intensity of
fishing, it's tailed down to one a year."
