Emperor Scorpion

IMG_0811.jpg

Scientific Name : Pandinus imperator

These scorpions are known to be the less harmless subspecies of scorpions. Their stingers are capable of releasing venom, however it is harmless to most humans, except for those that are allergic. Just like the tarantulas we have, the Emperor Scorpion enjoys a cricket dinner too. Soon we will be showcasing feeding videos of scorpions, tarantulas and centipedes.

big palmssss on this fella; does he rub them together as he laughs menacingly ?

It looks really huge and you can see that it is real black, reminds me immediately the movie "Scorpion King" I am impressed with the little joint like structure of the tail of scorpions, they are in general famous for their poison.

Oooooooooo, what a cute little critter! <3
