Dragon Millipede – Creepy Pink Newly Discovered Creature (pic)
December 15th, 2008
Dragon millipede (Desmoxytes purpurosea) is another one of the newly discovered species of creepy creatures from the Mekong Delta in South-East Asia. Unlike cute Gumbrechts Green Pit Viper, Dragon Millipede is creepy pink and has countless legs that would scare the shit out of me even if I was a notorious centipede predator. I don’t even know which birds feed of millipedes, but I’d stay the heck away. Dragon Millipede look so toxic I wouldn’t dare touching. Nevermind swallowing.
Since its discovery, Dragon Millipedes have secured themselves a spot in Top Ten New Species list of Arizona State University. Take a look at the list HERE. These little creatures are only as big as a thumb (would be creepier if they were bigger) and capable of producing poisonous cyanide as protection mechanism.
