I just got some very detailed info about how we get our Emps from the w coast of Africa. Someone here went to there for two weeks to see how the exporters operate. He said he watched workers get bars like rock bars and pry up plugs of dirt and break open the burrows to get the scorps out, buckets of 1000s of scorpions. The workers literally get paid 25 cents a day. That's good enough money over there. Really a great thing that we get these scorpions so cheap with all the work that goes into getting them here. I appreciate my imported scorps allot more after hearing that long story and inspired me to want to try and breed what I've got more. It's bad that they are tearing up everything over there. It sounded pretty bad. Sounds like we need allot more breeding going on over here. I believed that anyway but that story was pretty sobering.
