Centaurs, from the Latin "cen", meaning "hundred", and "taur", meaning "bull", have one hundred legs by definition. Bulls, horse-men, and other horsey creatures are generally referred to as n-taurs, and can have any number of legs. Most cattle are 4-taurs; Chiron is a 6-taur. Those with more legs than usual (e.g. 64-taurs, or the Bojack Horseman Centipede) are known as myriapods.
