Canadian scorpions? I bet they are so polite and ask if they can sting you first.

@smoochumstar 3 года назад

And then say sorry several times after stinging you 😂

Canadian here and I approve of your comment :)

@@smoochumstar Ladies and gentlemen, this is Paruroctonus boreus, the Northern scorpion, which is the only scorpion that occur naturally in Canada, and it can survive the cold climate of its northern distribution Is hard to think of Canada when you think of scorpions, but nature can be very amazing and show to us that some things that we have always imagined, they have actually been imagined in the wrong way

@lorenzomodini2335 Год назад

Finally a documentary with this species

This video clearly show us how nature can be very strange and amazing

I love this clip about the only scorpion in Canada, which is Paruroctonus boreus, the Northern scorpion This scorpion is relatively harmless to humans, unless you are allergic to its sting, but don't worry the venom of scorpions is only used to kill their preys, and did not evolve for self-defense But is bad news for arachnophobes that Canada has scorpions 🦂🦂🦂😱😱😱😱

@lorenzomodini2335 Год назад

This is a Paruroctonus boreus, which is commonly known as Northern scorpion and is the only scorpion in Canada. In contrast to the popular image of scorpions as desert animals, this scorpion can survive the cold and surprisingly it has been found in the snow.

WHAT!?! Here? Where abouts in southern BC? ...and how venomous is it?

Just a sting

@BasePuma4007 4 года назад

Probably around Osoyoos up to Kelowna. There's also scorpions in the more arid parts of southern Alberta.

@BasePuma4007 4 года назад

It's not dangerous for an adult, its just like a bee sting, though a lot more painful. Its dangerous for little kids and baby's though

@hollen279 2 года назад

I tried to look for these guys in southern Alberta, practicing my skills as a wannabe young biologist, me and my friends went out in the Canadian deserts near drumheller Alberta near midnight and we brought flashlights and stuff to try to look for them. We actually did not find any but they can definitely be found in Canada, I will look for them next time and try to take some pictures and document them.

@donrotten4791 2 года назад

I’m from Drumheller and it’s not Alberta’s desert, it’s the badlands. You have to go south of Medicine Hat. We also don’t have rattle snakes here, only bull and garter snakes.
