Awesome scorps man...Hail Androctonus!

Definately disable the crickets prior to feeding youngsters :)

or maybe a ruler...

uhh...do you have a tape measure?

Something called scientific observation; little bit beyond pet-keeping.

I, too, keep terrosus and it is of very calm temperament. So, you're right about that. I wouldn't handle it though :wicked: .

Thanks crpy.

I think it was Rene Descartes who, when writing about pseudo-intelligence in nature (when the word itself should really be reserved for more cerebral animals), used the bee as a paradigm. Scorpions are enchanting because they are equipped with such sophisticated and acute mechano-sensory and...

Laoticus is similar to both hets and emps. And the Laos are communal, yes. But I prefer hets.

Aside from centruroides and possibly androctonus, leiurus are my favorite.

Very nice:clap:

Personification can be a misleading avenue for your fancy. Albeit, the animals' behavior may be complex and fascinating, however. It is an organic robot imbued with intricate programming but not a sentient being. And that is part of what makes them great.

Not a problem, buthus. Your suspicion brings upon relevant conversation. I didn't mean to be excessively serious. Now, one has every right to question the nature (i.e. element of danger) of Sicarius sp. simply because so little is known. That is fair. However, let's consider this from a...

This data is extrapolated from "The phylogenetic distribution of shingomyelinase D activity in venome of Haplogyne spiders", credit to Greta Binford and Michael Wells, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Univ. of Arizona> As we all know, the bites from spiders in the genus...

Please do.

That's rather slippery of you, buthus. Perhaps I was too colloquial with one of my written sentences. Let me rephrase myself; "I have happened upon written rumors concerning this spider, consisting of envenomations that have taken place in a third-world country". I cannot ascertain the...

I have heard accounts of victims of the Sicarius hahni requiring immediate amputation to save the life of the victim, but the toxicological research is scarce and hazy. What is known is that Siciarius sp. venom contains higher quantities of the amino acid sphingomyelinase D (juxtaposed with...

Beautiful photos man.
