Big Bug Facts

Count a millipede’s legs!

It’s not as difficult as it sounds: They have four legs on each body segment, so count the segments and multiply by four. Centipedes have two legs per segment.

Scorpion eyes

Scorpions have up to six pairs of eyes. How many can you see on this desert hairy scorpion?

 

Insects have two compound eyes and one to three simple eyes called ocelli that can detect light but probably not images. The praying mantis above has three ocelli.
The other two heads are of stick insects.
