The Arizona bark scorpion is a small, light brown scorpion. It lives in the Sonoran Desert of the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. It is the most venomous scorpion in the United States, so it is important to know what it looks like and what to do after a sting.1

Zer egiten du bere pozoiak?

The venom causes severe pain in adults, along with numbness, tingling and vomiting. These symptoms typically last between 24 and 72 hours. The stung area may stop working for a time, so a hand or arm can be temporarily immobilised or have convulsions. Some victims also feel short breaths and electrical jolts.1

Egon seguru

Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
Batek ziztatzen bazaitu: egon lasai, egon geldi, deitu zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911) edo joan ospitalera azkar. Gogoratu nolakoa zen, argazki batek laguntzen du.

Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia janaria harrapatzeko edo bere burua babesteko erabiltzen du, eta askoz nahiago du ezkutatu. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago

Datuak

Scorpions, including this species, were found near ground zero during American nuclear tests, with no recorded harmful effects.1

Its venom has little effect on grasshopper mice, which scientists found use the toxin as a pain reducer rather than a pain trigger.1

It is the only scorpion genus in the Southwest that can climb rough walls and trees.1

Layers of wax on its outer shell help it resist water loss in the desert.1

Newly moulted scorpions do not glow under UV light for a few days.1

Young scorpions are gently guided onto their mother's back, where they stay after birth.1

Mito-hauslea

Mitoa: Scorpions go looking for people to sting them.

Egia: They will not seek out humans unless they are provoked or defending their young. Many stings happen when people touch a scorpion on the underside of an object, where it is hiding.1
