Hideous centipedes are large insects that prowl the undergrowth of jungles in search of prey, which they then attack and devour. They are even known to scurry along riverbeds to feed on fish, and when they feel threatened, their first instinct is to flee and hide underwater. Some jungle tribes train hideous centipedes as mounts, but the process is long and very dangerous, though raising a young centipede from the egg produces the best results.
