Thousands of centipedes staged a migration in Taiwan (3 photos + 1 video)
What can you do on a Tuesday morning? For example, watching centipedes. Yes, the idea is so-so, but after such shots you begin to rejoice that you are now at home and not in the forest of Western Taiwan. 
Yang Xiaozhong, a guide from the nearby Shiba Recreational Farm, discovered the centipedes while leading a tour group along Dalu Forest Road on Saturday, April 27. At first, people mistook insects for dry grass.
A swarm of centipedes crawling on the ground, stretching for about 40–50 meters. In his 11 years as a guide, this was the first time the man had seen such a large moving group of insects. 
This phenomenon is extremely rare; the fact is that centipedes do not migrate at all in principle. They do not have such a feature. But what happened to these insects is completely unclear. The Taiwanese worry that such behavior foretells a powerful earthquake.
Taiwan's Central Meteorological Administration assured the public that there was "no need for excessive panic," stressing that earthquakes cannot be predicted based on the phenomenon alone.
Wu Liwei, an associate professor at Taiwan Tonghai University's Faculty of Life Sciences, noted that millipede migration is not unusual for living things, adding: "Such migrations usually occur in response to significant changes in the environment, such as food shortages." or environmental shifts.”
