What Do Scorpions Eat

Although each Emperor scorpion has a venomous stinger on the tip of its tail, adults normally rely on their large claws, or palps, to capture prey.

Scorpions can eat a variety of animals and insects, ranging from centipedes to mice.

The Emperor Scorpion is one of the largest scorpions in the world.

Molting is a sign that the scorpion is independent of its mother.
