this is the first time I've ever seen something like that Discovery Channel has nothing on you I have never in my life seen a scorpion like that that's awesome.
I have a question. I own a Coastal Burrowing Scorpion aka Urodacus novaehollandiae . It is just a year old. Just want to know. Is it venomous and can it kill me when stung? Should I handle it?
I have a question about my scorpions . So my girl just gave birth to a few babies last night and one of the hatchlings wondered off and idk either to take the baby out of the enclosure so mama doesn’t eat it , or have the hatchling try to climb back on mamas back
I am from northwest area of Pakistan. there are too many scorpions in our home. I am afraid that the scorpion will bite our children. So what's the method to prevent it.
I recently got 2 young As a in forest scorpions. I know all I need to about habitat and food but I need to know a few things regarding handling them. 1) how often should I handle them 2) how do I know when they are irritated or scared 3) how do I know they are calm enough to handle
Handle them as least as possible. They do not enjoy it, it is purely for your own pleasure. Touch them with a soft paint brush or straw, if they strike, dont touch.
Six-Zero-Six Defender Of Justice! I got Respect for you then. Most ppl fear or hate things that hurt them... Scorpions 🦂 don't sting unless provoked after all most are really laid back.
Im frm the New Mexico area and what kind of spiders r those that makes the hole in the ground I can get the out weed and gum on it wen i was little u know what im talking about. ..?
Deadly Tarantula Girl I think scorpions in general are very entertaining to watch involving their behavior and antics. The most painful sting I ever received was from this very small common southern brown scorpion that can be found as far north as Virginia. I have this female Vin that is living a long time now, I use a mixture of 50% coconut fiber and 50% Play sand, with a small bowl of water crystals. Oh, I watched the video where you mentioned your obsession with Chapstick. I like Blistex that I get from the dollar store. But then again my lips are not as nice and full as yours.
I have a great appreciation for the studies you are carrying out, however those are veeeeery small enclosures. Can be very stressful and damaging to the specimen.
I used to have a Hadrurus Arizonensis as my first scorpion, it ended up dying while trying to molt. They are well known for dying in captivity. They require "lots and lots' of substrate to burrow in. They've been known to burrow 13 feet in the ground to find adequate conditions to molt. They are the scorpion that burrows the most of any scorpion in the world. In captivity, they require a minimum of 4 inches of substrate and they will dig caverns and tunnels throughout the enclosure. I have seven scorpions that are the deadliest in the world. I have scorpions from the the Buthidae genus and from families such as : Leiurus, Androctonus, Hottentotta, and Parabuthus. The Leiurus are the most venomous, but the Androctonus are waaay more aggressive and fun to watch than any of them. That is a nice Parabuthus Transvaalicus you have Marita.
I just got 2 flat Rock scorpion today the one with the gold stripes RU-vid is normally helpful and the internet but I can't find anything useful and it's conflicting should I get them sand or Eco Earth? I know I get them a water dish but do I mist their substrate if I get them eco on Earth? or do I keep them dry?
+Squirrely Squirrel I would leave them alone. I haven't heard of a spider that has been killed by a superwom, but it might be possible. Even though there is a small chance of this happening, I wouldn't be too worried about it:)
Aviators are much more adequate I find for eye protection when opening the lids of spitting scorpions. Need to look cool while you deal with your deadly specimens.
I finally learned that even desert species spend much time in deep moist burrows. The wrong advice usually from numbskulls on forums (meanwhile the shipping costs are high despite their early deaths), is that desert arachnids get most of their moisture from food sources.
+Deadly Tarantula Girl watch no matter what i think that stripped knee might be the brazilian white i have two seemanis femsle blue with orange bottom and posible male
Hey! Thankyou for all the videos..I am from the highest snake populated area of India. I am interested in helping the medicine research with scorpion venom or snake venom. I desire to work for sometimes with any of the institutions which deal with these creatures...If you are familiar with any such institutions you may please guide me...Thankyou! All the best for your next video!
@@MaritaDeLaPenaDTG I know most spiders aren't inherently aggressive but when I was 5 my sister threw one at me and that gave me arachnophobia for years. Now I've got more than a decade of government work under my belt. Trust me I've dealt with plenty of scary but despite being over the arachnophobia I still maintain a distance. In fact my sister's torment of me is why I'm so fearless now...lol. Thank you I guess...right...lol.
I wish my folks would let me have scorpions,but my dad doesn't like them for some reason,he lets me have spiders centipedes and other bugs,but no scorpions or snakes!! it makes no sense. He says they will get out and overrun the house which is true for the small native scorpions we have in north Texas, but not for emperors, or other large breeds. He would probably let me keep vinegaroon so as they don't sting, but I never found any at any pet stores or in the wild.
I really hope Youu don’t live in an area that is prone to/gets Earthquakes ! Would suck have those scorpions get loose after their containers have fallen down and opened up for them to escape !
Why do you like handling things that can kill you and I live in az I thing they are all Beautiful creatures but I don't see why you would want to handle something so deadly like I won't to ride motorcycles but my fate is in my hands I'm not trusting a animal can you explain it to me so I can understand it or try to understand
Malakai Zimmerman that I’ll have to say you’re wrong. All spiders except about 3 small genus lack venom glands, and I could confidently say all scorpions are venomous. But, most of them pack venom that’s not lethal, so don’t worry, only experienced hobbyists keep very venomous species
