It'a a short movie with a girl and poor, little centipede.

That was quite amusing, but I think that the "centipede" is actually a caterpillar.

Yes it is a Gypsy Moth caterpiller. No big loss when she ripped it apart.

Really?
ASAIK caterpillars are insect, so it've got 3pairs of legs. In first few seconds of the movie you can see the characteristic way of moving, which looks like a centipede move. Something like a wave, you know what I'm talking about. Does the caterpillars moving like this?

Regards
Greg

I haven't seen the movie, but most caterpillars move in a wave-like fashion. Caterpillars also have three pairs of "true" legs just like any insect, but they also have four or five additional pairs of "prolegs" -- leglike extensions that give the impression of having more than six legs.

It looks like flat rock millipede - so a diplopoda afterall.
Watching the movie I thought she's going to eat the millipede at the end Either way not good for the critter to meet a humen it seems...

 

[kahoy]

side waving, like a sidewinder, not waving up and down like a catterpillar...

somehow it looks like edited to me....

or my PC has a problem.

I think Darwinsdad is right.
