New Delhi. Scientists are always engaged in finding something new and unique. Recently, scientists have discovered such a unique creature, which has 1306 legs, not one or two legs. As soon as it came into existence, a new species of this millipede has got the title of being the most footed creature in the world. Scientists have named this species of Gojar as Eumileps persephone. A total of 1306 legs have been found in the body of this creature. Scientists told that these creatures live very below the surface of the earth and are rarely seen on the surface.
Paul Marek, an entomologist at Virginia Tech University and author of the research paper on the discovery of this species, says that the word ‘millipede’ has always been a misnomer. In the research paper, he has written that there are many such species of cows in the world, whose feet are probably less than 100. Before the discovery of this species, the record for having the most feet was the name of the species Illacme plenipes of the gojar. There are a total of 750 legs in the body of the species Ilacme plenipes.
