    I'm not certain what type of scorpion you have there, but based on the shape of those pedipalps I hope you are very careful with it.

    What? I'll bet you don't believe in Jackalopes either.

    Yeah small pincher's usually indicate stronger venom but not in this case.
    He's one of the many local types "Vaejovis Confusus" so his sting would not be much worse than a bee sting. In fact scorpion & bee venom are very similar & since I quit breathing when bee's sting me, I'm very careful not to find out if I have the same reaction to scorps.
    One or two types of Bark scorpion reside here too & those can be a little dangerous.
