The walls of the Gomantong caves are teeming with tens of giant centipedes (Thereuopoda sp.).

They possess a pair of modified legs that have a stinger and can administer a painful sting if picked up by hands. To take this image I had to squeeze into a shallow crevice inside the cave’s wall, and I had some centipedes running on my body and face while taking this particular wide-angle shot
