This ancient millipede grew longer than a polar bear. It was discovered more than 100 years ago, but today, it finally gets a head. 🧪 My latest for @sciencenews.bsky.socialwww.sciencenews.org/article/larg...
Fossils of an extinct giant millipede reveal new details about the arthropod’s anatomy.
Mouth like a centipede...so it might've been a predator?!
“But the caterpillar was still hungry…”
Never once have i ever used a polar bear as a size comparison (because obviously it’s a terrible non definable term) but cheers to all who have this calculation in their head!!!!
When can we clone them?
Okay but is there a reason they coloured it like the Very Hungry Caterpillar?
hello yes @derekhennen.bsky.social rejoice
A century is a long time to be behind. Glad it caught up!
"This ancient millipede grew longer than a polar bear" Excuse me, WHAT?
