Scorpions

Large and interesting invertebrate for interactive bug parties and displays. It should be noted that this animal is venomous & that anyone who has a hypersensitivity to wasp/bee stings should be identified at any event – the venom has a similar effect upon the respiratory system & this group of people are inevitably more at risk of anaphylactic reaction.

Generally we use the the larger scorpion species with a mildly venomous sting (the effect on humans is usually similar to a bee sting). They tend to rely on their large and powerful claws to overpower their prey of insects and small animals.
