Additional info: This species causes more deaths then any other species of scorpion. In my opinion they are the most dangerous species of scorpion in the world. With that said they are only for experienced keepers with years of scorpion keeping under there belt. They can't climb glass so they are easy to manage. Extreme caution should be taken when keeping this species.
