Under a pile of palm fronds, I also managed to find two millipedes mating, this animal has very unique and interesting characteristics, from its appearance to its lifestyle. Unlike centipedes, this animal is completely harmless to humans, because it cannot bite or sting, but it is still recommended not to play with it because this animal can release a chemical fluid from its body that can cause itching and irritation, the beauty of this animal is more suitable for viewing only. Its size is also not too big so I can photograph it using a macro lens, besides that I tried to photograph both of them because when I found it, this animal was mating. This animal also has a rusty red color, and this color is what makes this animal have a very striking appearance and is quite easy to find, especially on the grass.

Look at the number of legs, doesn't it look like a lot?
I wonder how many legs there are.
Okay everyone, now I'm going to share some pictures of this millipede here.
