animalplanet: ewok-gia: On this dark variant of a Giant Centipede (Scolopendra gigantea) found on Margarita Isld., Venezuela, you can clearly see the venom injecting Forcipules. Though they resemble fangs (and act much as venom fangs do in other animals), the forcipules are modified legs (and not mouth parts). (photo: Artexnet and Ivi) very neat!! I love this shot! Yeah, you can really see how the “fangs” are just crazy front claws :)
