A desert millipede in New Mexico. I rarely saw these when I was growing up, but now they're common in the White Rock Canyon area of Los Alamos County. Curiously, this species was kept as pets in Europe awhile back. They're harmless to humans (though they'll munch on your fingers) and I find them endearing.

@stshank 😍😍 I also love them. Used to find them as a kid and just watch them walk around. Fascinating
