Millipedes have many legs as an adaptation for their lifestyle and habitat. The numerous legs help them navigate through their environment, allowing for better burrowing and movement through leaf litter and soil. This abundance of limbs also aids in stability and balance, enabling them to traverse uneven surfaces effectively. Additionally, having many legs can enhance their ability to escape predators by making quick, agile movements.
