Is there a creature with 1,000 feet?
_x000D_Scientists led by Virginia Tech entomologist Paul Marek have discovered millipede possessing 1,306 legs (pictured) – more than any known kind. The threadlike pale-colored millipede reaches about 3-1/2 inches (95 mm) long and about four-hundredths of an inch (0.95 mm) wide. The creature is equipped with a conical head, beak-shaped mouth, and extensive antennae – likely one of its only sources of sensory input because it lacks eyes, according to the research published in the journal Scientific Reports on Dec. 16, 2021. The Eumillipes Persephone resides underground in Western Australia.
