i'm sure that everyone is aware of this, but tommorow(tuesday) night Animal Planet is debuting an episode of "Profiles of Nature" entitled "the scorpion's tail" it is an hour long documentary on scorpions. I eagerly look forward to this, as i have always felt that scorps deserve a documentary of their own. I am not getting my hopes up however, as i'm sure that the facts will be wrong and it will just use the same stock photage we've all seen 200 times. But hey, what have we got to lose? Gentlemen, start your TiVos!

I saw that last summer when I was in Canada, it has some nice footage, but if you know anything about scorpions you'll cringe at several points ;)

Main one I remember seeing is H.a. They also showed some Heterometrus spp. Im pretty sure, Also they talked about C. exilicauda.

Thats all I can remember. Like I said I wasn't really paying attention too much, I wasnt in to scorpions as much as I am now.

Isnt it amazing that something you cared so little for got overlooked. and now you cant get enough of it.

What a fascinating hobby.
