Last time I saw that many scorpions was on the rifle range in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba when I lifted a target from a stack laying downrange. Not a nice surprise at all. As for the Armadillos... they're possums with male pattern baldness;)

Yep, I had two of those that my students got me for my birthday one year :). They are actually harmless. The scoprions in the picture do have quite a sting.... sorta like a bee, but not deadly to most.

:D

Beautiful pair in that picture. My son and his friend also had a pair (one for each) of the same breed. What really weirded people out is that they would go walking around with one scorpion on their shoulders. I guess with that much handling, the scorpions were just resigned to just hanging on and didn't even try to sting them.

I did have one as a kid, but it was a wild brown/red desert type and very quick, very mean. That one, i definitely don't mess around with it (handle it with bare hands). It reminded me of some arnis fighters.

I also used to have some adorable, fuzzy tarantulas as pets.

I was in the Bahamas and I rented some scooters for teh ex-wife and myself. We had gone looking around and got to palces even the locals did not go :eek: . On the way back in the afternoon, it rained (* Like usually *) and the road started to get crowded by all the little critters (* Snakes / Scorpians / spiders / etc, ..., . *). I could not avoid hitting them. Mostly the scorpians that seemed to run right in front of me, they seemed to move fast :). The ex stopped and started to get upset at all the critters. I told her to keep going and that I would follow, I had been leading to get us back, she had not paid attention to our route. It is one of the better moments I remember :p . And when we got back and filled up the gas, the locals filing the tanks asked did you go to the beach? Yes we went to the beach and then we went around the island and ended up over by Peilican Point. (* Eastern Tip of Grand Bahamian Island *) Where? Peilican Point. No way we do not go there, and we live here on this island :eek: :D . Once again I got off the beaten path :shrug: and enjoyed how the real locals lived :( and survived to tell of it. :D

That is my Scorpian Story, oh by the way the ex was a Scorpia/Monkey, not so sure why she was so upset?
 
The armadillo makes a great speed bump and a fair pair of boots; I just havent figured out the scorpion's role....
