Chokwadi
In a study on the Three Kings Islands, researchers reportedly had to wrap their sleeping bags in tinfoil to warn them of the centipedes nearby.1
In New Zealand, introduced rats and European hedgehogs eat hura, so the centipedes are most common on islands without these pests.1
North Island brown kiwi are known to prey on hura.1
Its blood-like fluid, called haemolymph, has a high concentration of protein and is thought to be typical of more primitive arthropods.1
