Northern Scorpion (Paruroctonus boreus)

Add to Cart

Typically high-strung and aggressive, this large northern scorpion (Paruroctonus boreus) is perhaps the biggest I've ever seen at just over 4cm in length and the only one that ever let me touch it without trying to sting me. I found this one near Lake Lenore at the base of some basalt cliffs under a rock in rural Grant County, Central Washington.
