Scorpions 8 images Created 24 Apr 2015
Scorpions are a fascinating group of arachnids that are very easy to identify: two claws in the front and a venomous stinger held up from behind and above its body. Modern day scorpions have evolved from massive eight-foot marine ancestors, and have a fossil record that stretches back 430 million years. They are now found all over the world except Antarctica.
