Choosing a Scorpion

Scorpions commonly kept as pets tend to be from tropical rain-forests, as these are the largest, most impressive and least venomous. Most 'pet scorpions' live for several years in captivity. Lives more than 5 years are common.
Commonly kept pet scorpions include the Emperor or Imperial Scorpion (Pandinus imperator). This species is native to tropical forests of West Africa. It can often be found lurking inside termite mounds. It is a jet black monster, up to 6 inches long! Thankfully this species is fairly docile and reluctant to sting unless provoked.

Reasonably 'safe' ones with a sting like a wasp or hornet include:
Emperor Scorpion - Pandinus imperator (mild sting - comparable to a bee sting).
Flat Rock Scorpion - Hadogenes species.
Asian Forest Scorpion - Heterometrus sp.
Shiny Burrowing Scorpion - Oposthophalmus glabrifrons (more painful, sometimes categorized as a "venom lvl 2 scorp" which varies w/ similar species)
Tanzanian Redclaw Scorpion - Pandinus cavimanus


Scorpions are cold-blooded and therefore need to eat only infrequently. Scorpions in the wild can go without food and water for months on end, seemingly without any detriment. When kept as pets, it is wise to make ample food available. Without it, they may start to attack and prey upon each other. Generally they are best kept singly. Some less aggressive species can be kept in small groups of up to four, given ample food, floor space and hiding places.

dli bana cya kuyaw brod....

ang scorpions bai reutreve gi.classify into 5 levels, level 1 with the least venom and 5 as the most venomous.

if u are just a beginner, it is recommended nga sugod ka sa level 1 species, like the pandinus and heterometrus species.

but still even level 1 scorpions' venom can be deadly sa mga tao nga low og resistance (like kung allergic ka og bee sting)...most specially children and the elderly. og di sad recommended to handle scorpions, even with the level 1 species.....
