...I've caught some centepedes back in TX that I would NOT feed to a collared.... Big old suckers like 8" long, kind of a dark maroon on the back and brilliant, fire-red/orange leg tips and mandibles. Awful personalities though. One I caught out in my shop would rear up like a cobra and dive on a cricket, then bind it up in a thousand leg clutch of death. Creepy, yet cool LOL.

It took a long time before anyone would eat the centipedes, that was a long time ago and I think the lizards weren't used to eating anything but crickets yet. They were also smaller then.
I didnt actually see the scutigera get eaten, but I convinced myself that it couldn't climb the glass, and it was nowhere to be found on my next visit to the lizard cage. So I assume he got an inside view of a collared lizard throat.
Just think what the desert would be crawling with if there were no lizards and small snakes...
