In rural areas, centipedes are very common creatures. Together with poisonous snakes, toads, geckos, and scorpions, it is known as the "Five Poisons".
As the saying goes, everything is mutually exclusive, no lower is supreme, no low is no high, no bitterness is no sweetness, which means that every creature in the world has its own nemesis. For the centipede, its nemesis is the big rooster.
Biologists have found that centipedes existed as early as 400 million years ago. At present, up to 8,000 species of centipedes have been found in the world. In terms of size, the Galapagos giant centipede is one of the largest centipedes. It can reach a length of up to 40 cm and is mainly distributed in southern Peru and the coastal areas of Ecuador.
Centipedes are poisonous organisms, and if the human body is bitten by a centipede, various symptoms of poisoning may occur. For example, nausea and vomiting, body fever, severe cases can even directly lead to coma shock.
So, if the centipede is so toxic, why is the big rooster not afraid at all?
If you live in a rural area, you may see such a scenario. Even after the big rooster sees the centipede, it will take the initiative to attack and even eat the centipede.
Because of the special body structure of the big rooster, it has a natural advantage when fighting with centipedes.
The big rooster is covered with a thick layer of feathers, so it will not be easily bitten by centipedes. Moreover, after the big rooster eats the centipede, the toxins in the centipede will be quickly broken down by the stomach and liver of the big rooster, so the big rooster will not be poisoned.
Therefore, when the centipede encounters the big rooster, it is often afraid to dodge everywhere, and does not dare to face the big rooster.
