What are Centipedes defenses?
Centipedes use the poison claws to bite potential predators including other centipedes. The caudal legs in some Scolopendromorpha may pinch. Other defense methods include camouflage, "aposematic" [warning] coloration and luminescence, "autotomizing" or dropping of legs that are grasped by predators, and outrunning them. Some species also produce defensive secretions with a variety of noxious chemicals and larger species appear to have poison glands in their legs, as merely walking on skin can result in inflamed puncture wounds. Some lithobiomorphs emit liquid strands from glands in the caudal end that entangle potential predators.
