Black-backed hairy scorpion

It finds prey by sensing vibrations, so it struggles to catch prey that moves less.1
It often pauses before feeding, but scientists do not know why.1
It is a burrowing scorpion that spends much of its time digging in the sand and enlarging its burrow.1
It needs high daytime temperatures of 30–35 °C and a sharp drop at night to about 20 °C, which mimics desert conditions.1
