Why are some people afraid of multi legged animals?

Oh, I'm studying psychology I think it's because of the long-term heredity of human beings Since ancient times, multi-legged animals would bring existential dangers to the ancients (such as spiders, centipedes, just like poisonous fruits, legless snakes), and people who are alert to these dangers can survive In the long run, people are born with a fear of these things, because this fear can make people immediately have a vigilant reaction when they encounter them, which is conducive to human survival. In modern times, times have changed. It may be that what was a threat to humanity is no longer a threat, but the fear that humans have evolved since ancient times has not disappeared.

This is also the underlying cause of some seemingly unjustified fears (such as disgust and fear of all things bitter, etc.), but then again, it has more to do with Darwin than with psychology.

Because centipedes, spiders and other poisonous animals are mostly long-legged, people think that multi-legged animals are scary.

Because bugs have a lot of feet and run fast.

It's faster to run into your ears, so be careful when you go to bed at night.

Beware of centipedes, don't run in your ears!

People are alert to anything they don't know, so they're afraid.

Not necessarily. The shrimp crawlers we often eat have a lot of legs.

Because it looks disgusting and disgusting.

Because we only have 2 legs.

Usually disgusting animals, centipedes, cockroaches, large spiders, ......It's all a lot of legs.

Those without feet are even more terrible, such as snakes and earthworms.

There have been psychological shadows before.

Why are people afraid? The main thing is to be able to solve this problem, and the others will be solved.

It means that he is normal! Will there be people who like that kind of thing?

Because??? It's disgusting**

Think differently and join a giant monster many times bigger than you to get close to you, and you will not be afraid.

1. In terms of biological habits, humans are not a species that most animals get along with every day, so they are relatively unfamiliar, so they are wary when they first get along with humans.

2. In terms of body shape, any creature will be in awe of creatures larger than its own size, so this is the same as some small animals are afraid of humans.

millipedes", it is by far the longest-legged animal, with a total of 666 legs.

The most special and striking thing about the female millipede is her rare limbs, which have a full 666 legs. Scientists have discovered this millipede in San Benito County, California, it belongs to the group of diplopods and is the creature with the most legs in the world, the first discovery of the millipede was in 1926, in the literal sense of the word, the millipede means that it has a thousand legs, in fact, it does not have so many legs, however, in any case, this concept called "plenipes" is closest to the millennial bug. Previous findings have shown that female plenipes can grow up to 750 legs.

In the June 8 issue of Nature, scientists report on their three trips to California's botanical province, during which they found four male and three female specimens. The female's plenipes have longer legs, about inches, and have 666 legs, while the males have an average length of inches and 402 legs.

Paul Marik of East Carolina University, one of the report's authors, said that at first males and females were the same length, but later females grew larger, had more segments and were wider. It is not known whether the females are growing too fast or if the males continue to grow when they stop growing.

Millipede bar... It is also known as horse land and is a terrestrial arthropod. There are 175 knots in the whole body, and a total of 690 legs!!

I think that the fear of myriapods should be acquired, it can't be innate, and it can't be said that people know centriapods as soon as they are born! Maybe you catch a multi-legged animal and give it to the baby, and he will play with it!

And why be afraid?

It may be because of the animal's appearance, or it may be the animal's habits, or it is more likely that it has been injured by this animal. This kind of fear is not directed

The animal with the most legs in the world is the millipede, also known as the horse, which is a terrestrial arthropod.

Millipedes, with a cylindrical or oblong-flat body, are divided into two parts, the head and the torso. The head has a pair of stubby antennae, and the torso is made up of many segments, many of which can reach hundreds of segments. The first section is inadequate. 2nd to 4th segments, one pair of feet per segment. Each of the remaining segments has two pairs of feet.

In the Panamanian Valley of North America, there is a large horse continent with 175 knots and a total of 690 legs, which can be called the most legged animal in the world.

It's a centipede, with the most reaching 191 pairs.
