i found one of my emperors apparently attacked by another, there is a hole on the bottom of the back leg where it looks like another scorpion was eating it.

the scorpion is still alive though but barely, it is nearly non responsive, i have removed it from the tank and put it in a deli container.

is there anything i can do to save it?

Its sad to say but do you think its worth saving? If it was you would you want to be put out of your misery? Can you post some pics. having trouble seeing what your talking about

Is it only one leg that has been damaged? Or is it beaten up all over?

the skin on its side looks deflated almost, it looks like it was sucked out through the bottom of the leg.

the wound is dry.

the scorpion is barely alive, i thought it dead at first but it does respond to some stimuli,

It might be possible to save, but its doubtful. I would say you should put it in the freezer, mean, but I dont tink it will survive. You might want to ask some more advanced members about this,
