Scolopendra heros
Found in our camper. They are poison and will attempt to swing around and sting with it's black barbs at the end of it's body.
Grass lands.
They are a predator that feed on arthropods, mainly moths. They are rumored to be lethal, which is a misconception. They are only poisonous. The effect is normally felt for 2 hours.
