University field station newsletter told me giant millipedes are particularly active this time of year “when they’re on the move for important millipede reasons.” I think that might be scientist secret code for “nobody really knows why.” All we know is the millipedes are moving for some reason and it must be important or they wouldn’t do it. Important millipede reasons.
