Some cool facts about scorpions:

  • They live on every continent except Antarctica

  • They are Arachnids

  • They can withstand being frozen solid

  • Can hold their breathe for 3 days

  • Can go without food for an entire year

  • Survive doses of radiation that would kill a human

  • They were on their present form 400 million years ago, before our lung breathing fish ancestors stepped foot on land. When the world looked like this

  • And so, evolved a different way to breathe air. They have a 6 pockets on their underbelly that contain flaps similar to gills where oxygen diffuses.

  • They have the most light sensitive eyes on the planet

  • They can see 360 degrees

  • They can sense ground and flying insects from up to a meter away

  • Over time they accumulate high levels of Iron and Zinc at the sharpest points of their bodies giving them REAL METAL ARMOR
