[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Vietnamese scolopendra lives, as it comes from her name, in Vietnam and South-East Asia. Its a venomous creature, but it's bites is not letal to the human. When she run along someone's body, she left a trail of inflammation behind. Poor Vietnamese people, really. This one is living happily in Museum of Living Insects, branch of great Museum of Zoology in Saint-Petersburg. |

'Allo Uhu my owly friend! I can see that you like to learn about Nature by also studying in Museums. I think it is a wonderful way to learn about Nature, when one does not have the opportunity to see creatures that are either not near, or are dead and long gone.
I appreciate the Note, as it is the first I learned about this venomous creature...
And learning is what TN is about. ;) ;) Tfs, Jay
