1

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

2

In New Zealand, introduced rats and European hedgehogs eat hura, so the centipedes are most common on islands without these pests.1

3

North Island brown kiwi are known to prey on hura.1

4

Its blood-like fluid, called haemolymph, has a high concentration of protein and is thought to be typical of more primitive arthropods.1
