The Emperor Scorpion
- One of the largest species of scorpion in the world.
- Lives for six to eight years.

This scorpion will glow under UV light.
- The pincers are very big in relation to the body, so the scorpion can easily hold on to its prey and even tear it apart. Because of this the venom is not very potent.
- Most humans describe the sting as feeling like a bee-sting.
