"In 1967, during the Vietnam War, an American soldier held up a Scolopendra subspinipes, a species of giant centipede found throughout Asia. The centipede preys on insects like spiders and scorpions but can overpower small mammals or reptiles. It uses its venomous jaws and other legs to immobilize its prey until the fast-acting venom takes effect. The centipede's body is reddish-brown and can reach a maximum length of 12 inches (30 cm). In the photo, the centipede is being held up by a fishing line and appears closer to the camera than the soldier standing nearby, who isn't actually touching the centipede."
