The stripe-tailed scorpion is a medium-sized scorpion that lives in the deserts of south-western United States and north-western Mexico. It is often found under rocks and on sandy ground. Although it is venomous like all scorpions, its venom is not considered dangerous to people.1

Če piči

Pik ohladi z ledenim obkladkom in poškodovanca drži pri miru. Hitro poišči zdravniško pomoč, še posebej pri otrocih: nekateri škorpijoni so za otroke smrtno nevarni.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
Če te piči: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

Dejstva

If the male keeps dancing longer than the female, she may attack him and eat him.1

During pregnancy, the female holds an unusually rigid body posture that no other scorpion shows, with her front legs lowered at birth.1

Mating involves a dance that can last from a few minutes to several hours, and the pair then goes their separate ways.1

Pallid bats, sand-swimmer snakes, spiders, centipedes, lizards, birds and other scorpions all prey on it.1

Razbijalec mitov

Mit: Stripe-tailed scorpions are dangerous to people because they are venomous.

Resnica: Although it is venomous, its venom is not medically significant for humans or other mammals.1
