About it
A millipede is a long, slow animal with a body made of many rings, and most of the rings carry two pairs of legs. The name means "thousand feet," though most kinds have far fewer. Millipedes munch on dead leaves and rotting wood, which helps turn them back into soil.
Tap it and a wave ripples down its legs as it stretches out straight, then it curls up tighter and relaxes. The leggiest millipede known, found in Australia in 2021, has more than 1,300 legs.
