The Full Story
Scorpions are arachnids found in a wide range of habitats, but they are especially associated with warm, dry environments. They occur on every continent except Antarctica, including deserts, grasslands, and forests. Many species hide under rocks, in burrows, or in bark during the day and hunt at night. Their stinger and pincers make them famous, though only a minority of species are medically significant to humans. Their global distribution shows how adaptable arachnids can be.
