A couple of photos of scorpions on a field trip in Africa, really not sure what type…somebody will have to let me know!! All I ever remember about scorpions is the larger the pedipalp the less venomous, the smaller the pedipalp the more potent which makes complete sense of course…

Great shots Tony. I remember hearing something similar and watching a program about them and this tenny weeny thing that was seriously dangerous, causing death in a lot of cases.
