Scorpion with little ones

[Rich]

I found this lady on the Bouverie Preserve, Glen Ellen, Calif. on the 9 Sept 09. This is the 3rd of 4th time I have found scorpions with little ones on their back.

I just like the picture, shows maternal instinct in "lower" creatures.

very cool. Makes me all nostalgic. I used to have a 60 gallon tank with a colony of C. vittatus and they gave birth.

That's a great shot especially since it's not staged or I believe not taken in a terrarium. Thanks for posting
