  • we often see a lot of foot stars everywhere, or in the house that we often meet

where we often mention 1000-footed animals in the aceh language word, sipah moon, this animal is very strange

then I searched for the real name of this animal species on google lens
is archispirostreptus gigas
known as the African giant millipede/shongololo is a species of millipede

Giant millipedes have the main mode of defense if they feel threatened: curled up into a tight spiral that only exposes the hard exoskeleton, and secretes irritating fluid from the pores on its body which is yellow in color, if this fluid can enter our eyes / mouth it is very dangerous,

mites are often seen crawling on their exoskeletons and between their legs, millipedes have a symbiotic relationship with these mites, where the mites help clean the exoskeleton of the millipedes in exchange for food and protection of their host

are you going to run away after seeing a millipede pass by may sound normal to us, we can find this animal in humid air and eat rotting plant remains
