Centipede

After attending one of Ranger B's brown bag lunch talks yesterday (the topic was desert tortoises) we spent a few minutes looking at some of the critters in the visitor center. Here's one of them, a centipede. This one is probably 6" - 8" long. Like most things that live in the desert it's poisonous. We're not sure which end is the head.
