In some Chinese night markets, wide selections of skewered fried insects can be found displayed among more "normal" food choices. These include spiders, large tarantulas, scorpions, cicadas, beetles, silkworms, giant centipedes, and bamboo worms. Dried lizards (like geckos), starfish, and seahorses (signs listed them as ahippocampus) are sometimes offered as well. Tiger claws, bear paws, deer antlers, gazelle horns were among them, and were sold for medicinal purposes.
