BITTEN by a Giant Asian Centipede!

CLICK THE DONATE BUTTON TO HELP US SAVE RHINOS!
This first-of-its-kind episode was made from our livestream on April 10, 2024, during which Coyote took a bite LIVE from one of the world’s most lethal and mysterious centipedes with medical support from Doctor ER.
"WHY", you ask? All for conservation! The funds raised from the livestream and this episode are being donated to "Save the Horns," an initiative to protect critically endangered Black Rhinos in South Africa.
Our support does not stop here, however. Our new Save the Horns T-Shirt and Centipede Living Nightmare Hoodie now available on www.shopbravewilderness.com/
also benefit this conservation effort.
Special thanks to Doctor ER and his team for partaking in this incredible livestream event!
Thank you also to Scales and Tails of Ohio (SATOO) for providing the centipedes!

[@centipedeproductions7754]

The centipede he was bitten by, S. dehaani, is a species with a pretty potent venom, but it is not the most venomous. Species that are much more likely to be closer to the number one spot include E. rubripes spinosis, sp. "Malaysian tiger," and potentially E. rubripes platycephalus. To my knowledge, centipedes are capable of controlling how much venom they inject, so that is something to consider. A couple other people mentioned this, and I agree. Yeah, that centipede is not healthy. You can tell by the sluggish movement, and it appears it can barely move its anntenae at all. It has pretty severe mycosis, which is a fungal infection that can be caused by dirty conditions, inadequate ventilation, and keeping them too wet. Mycosis appears as black patches that slowly eat away at the centipede, and it can be found on any part of its body. If you do not take care of the infection, it will almost certainly result in death. Keeping centipedes very moist with little ventilation is a common mistake due to all the misinformation online. To get rid of mycosis, you must increase ventilation and completely dry their enclosure, but make sure you have a water dish constantly full so it does not desiccate. This will stop it from spreading any further until the pede reaches its next molt, which will save it if it's not too late already. (In your case I'm quite sure it's too late though.) Another method I have seen is to make a pure rock salt solution by placing a small amount of rock salt in boiling water for 5-10 minutes. Apply it to the infected areas of the centipede with a Q-tip, then gently scratch it away with a toothpick. This is a lot more tedious, considering you have to knock it out before you do it. There are two ways to knock them out: CO2 and ice water. I'd recommend ice water since most people are able to do that rather than CO2, and ice water works well enough. The species in the beginning is a good example of all the misinformation because it is often misidentified as "Scolopendra gigantea," which is not true; it is an unidentified species yet to be described. The problem that occurs when you misidentify species like that, especially in this case, is that they are found in different environments, therefore requiring different care. The species in the beginning is known as "sp. white legs." They are found in a more arid environment in the highlands of Peru. On the other hand, the true S. gigantea that it's being misidentified as is found in a lower, more humid environment, such as parts of Venezuela, Colombia, and Trinidad. I believe it is found in more than just those three places, but I can't remember off the top of my head.

Could also be you know old. Centipedes lifespan is approximately a year. And finding an ambassador which is very tame and docile means that they probably pushing that close as they want to get the most out of it as finding another docile centipede probably isn't a very easy task.

[@Inverts4Introverts]

@beni5149 large centipedes can and usually do live up to 7 years. This poor creature is also obviously suffering from mycosis, which is acquired through a consistent falier in husbandry. There's a chance that this was wild caught and at the end of its life, but even then, this isn't an ambassador. This is a dying centipede that has been in someone's care. Someone who is giving it improper care.

[@BtmQuark]

Peruvian giant white-leg centipede is not Scolopendra gigantea, it's a separate undescribed species nicknamed "white leg", generally referred to as Scolopendra sp. "white leg". And you can see that whoever owns this centipede didn't know that, cause you can see the centipede has mycosis (Scolopendra sp. "white leg" needs to be kept more dry than S. gigantea), it's so bad that the centipede can barely walk and its antennae are so rotted that it can't move them at all. I don't think they can sense fear, they just sense that the ground under them is shaking, which would probably make them more nervous. The most venomous centipede species (at least one that we know of) is probably "Riau Giant"/"Malaysian Tiger", it's an undescribed species and according someone who's been stung by both this one and Scolopendra dehaani (the one in the video, I actually have one of those at home, just a different color morph) it's been the most painful Allergic reactions to centipede venom are pretty rare, they happen more common with hymenoptera (bees, wasps and ants) stings, scorpion stings, sometimes snake bites, etc. Another thing: pain meds appear to not have much effect when it comes to some centipede stings (similar thing appears to be true with viper bites, you could get a shot of morphine and the pain will drop from 8/10 to maybe like 7/10), from what I've gathered local anesthesia seems to be more effective (also a warm compress might help a bit) They also showed very little of the actual reaction, from 'bite' reports I've read on this species the pain will only keep going up for like an hour or 2, then stay like that for a couple more hours before it starts to drop. The shot he was given certainly helped him get through the worst part. Correction: That centipede is already basically dead, its centralized brain appears to not be functioning and it's basically running on auto-pilot.

[@HotAppleKai]

The poor White Legs clearly suffered massive mistreatment. I hope Coyote does his due-diligence and clarifies this. That centipede is very much NOT 'fine'.

[@BtmQuark]

@@HotAppleKai The whole show is terribly managed, they all clearly care more about views than the animals they're presenting. It's full of factual mistakes and it's not the first time animals were mistreated. The fact that no one noticed that something was wrong with the centipede indicates that no one there actually seems to care about animals or education, it took Coyote 6 years to learn that centipede's forcipules aren't its mandibles.

[@HotAppleKai]

@@BtmQuark I agree with you. It's just so sad to see.

[@BtmQuark]

@@yaboycapone1996 So pointing out that no one there (maybe except for the doctor) has any clue what they're doing is "crying" and that the show supposedly about animals is so poorly managed that they couldn't keep an animal alive for more than few months is "crying"

Here from Bugs And Biology - he basically killed a centipede

[@axiyxav5377]

A big no. This centipede is almost dead and there are so many misinformations. This is just sad

[@royalrovers]

The first one is actually the second largest species ( _S. sp., "Peruvian white leg"_ ), after the true Amazonian giant centipede ( _S. gigantea_ ). There are two species which have caused human casualties, _S. gigantea_ & _S. dehaani_ (Vietnamese giant). The second one (the "cherry red") is actually considered a morph of _S. dehaani_ . I've been pinched by _S. dehaani_ several times for carelessness while working with them. I believe their venom is more cytotoxic than neurotoxic due to the intense localised pain & swelling of tissue. Besides potency, quantities of venom contribute to the potential damage, and that's what makes those New World giants dangerous with the gigantic sizes.

[@veryberrybvnny]

fascinating!! have you read any good papers on the subject or written any yourself? venom and stuff fascinates me, but there aren't really any undergrad courses on it in my uni.

[@danielballard3364]

100% correct but just adding a detail reg. the largest sizes. S. subspinipes (originating from Southeast Asia) usually averages at around 20 cm but some far larger individuals have been found, with one even being the current record holder with a massive 36.6 cm in length in Hawaii.There has not been found a larger individual even among the S. gigantea

[@LxstAgain]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@royalrovers actually scolopendra sp. white legs is the largest species, they get larger than gigantea. i believe the record right now for white legs is somewhere around 40cm not including the terminal legs and antenna.

[@Reptileowner]

How can you tell just wondering?

[@buggo_boi]

@@Reptileowner The black spots you see all over it is a fungal disease called mycosis, common in centipedes that are kept in too humid of an environment without proper ventilation. The way it is acting and the lack of movement from its antennae and maxillae leads me to think the nerve cluster in the head that acts as the "brain" of the centipede is dead (either from the mycosis or dehydration), and the body is simply moving on autopilot. If you look at the teaser video they released from 2 months ago, you can tell the centipede was in better health back then (though it appears it still had mild mycosis even then).

I read the title too fast and I thought it read "I got bitten by a giant a$$ centipede" 🤣🤣🤣

[@Herowebcomics]

Wow! That centipede bite is crazy! Not as painful,but more pervasive! Also,what a fun crossover!😊

[@CColetrainn]

Doc: "DONT YOU LET IT GET TO MY NECK" Coyote: "Oh look at this!!! Its going up the side of his head now! This could not be any better"

[@TuberoseKisser]

Only people who own centipedes know that the pedes in this video are misidentified and are in poor health.

[@buggo_boi]

Poor thing is basically dead :(

[@yogicentralyt]

Wait really? That's sad

[@PuddingXXL]

Care to elaborate

[@buggo_boi]

@@PuddingXXL The black spots you see all over it is a fungal growth that is a disease centipedes can get called mycosis. If left untreated for too long, the centipedes will eventually die. In this video, you can look closely at the head of the centipede and notice that the antennae and maxillae (mouthparts) don't move much, this is because the nerve cluster in the head (bug "brain") is dead and likely succumbed to the mycosis infection or dehydration. The rest of the body still moves because the other nerve clusters are still alive and active, but the body is likely moving on autopilot at this point, and without the head alive to eat things, the centipede will die.

[@PuddingXXL]

@@buggo_boi Thanks for the elaboration. Interesting on multiple levels

[@GrandpaPapi]

Dayum, Coyote has been lifting 😅

[@vladdevener5586]

Wow 1 of the most insane videos ever on the channel but absolutely loved this video & should totally b on a viral streak .

[@MonicaHatrick]

He goes out of his way to entertain us. Thank you coyote!!!!!!!!!

[@CONSEQUENCEZ]

He took this bite really well in comparison

[@ThierryC2373]

Yeah, no diva drama possible with a cardiac monitor attached and visible to the public :) I still believe it was painful anyway!

[@user-fn8sy9tb4d]

Well at least after he got bitten by the the giant desert centipede he probably was a little bit more prepared for what to expect

[@Christopher_S]

It's a shame that this livestream wasn't advertised, or available to watch anymore. I would have watched the whole thing if I knew it was going to happen.

[@juanma8959]

“No diarrhea, thank goodness” 😂

[@PizzaTime-Studios54]

Best Brave Wilderness video in KZbin history! Plus, Dr. Jordan (Doctor ER) did a great job treating Coyote with medical supplies.

[@AppleFrogTomatoFace]

you should measured the doctor heart rate too lol. he looks terrified.
