A scorpions venom has no effect on the scorpion or any other scorpion of the same family. However, if the venom is injected directly into the scorpions nerve ganglion(which would be quite an unlikely event outside the laboratory) , the the intoxins in the venom will come into play, and could possibly kill the scorpion within minutes.

2nd answer : Yes, any scorpion can kill another one (same species or not) A scorpion is immune to ITS OWN venom except if it is injected directly in its nervous ganglion and is not immune to the venom of other scorps. (same species or not). They can as well be killed by crushing and dismembering. Emps are said to be the most social scorpions but from time to time they will munch on each other due to dominance, size, overcrowding...

They are predators.

I have an emperor scorpion that had babies and for what im seeing they do not. I leave them alone because I dont know taking them out incase of that reason will cause the scorpions to die. But I had mine off the back for at least 2 weeks and nothing happened. So, most likely not. I could be wrong though.

Actually the moms will take care of their babies until they get big enough to defend themselves,but if one stays on his mom's back for to long then the mom will eat him.

Hi. I'm Jeremy. I wanted to comment on this as my scorpion just had babies about eight hours ago and she has eaten 2 of the 4. i think it could be because i stressed her out a bit. I had no idea she was pregnant so I was excited and kind of moved her hideout around to look at the babies. I came back a little later and could only find 2 and one in her mouth. Now, I feed both of my scorpions regularly and they are quite big but I do not count this as hunger.

Just a few minutes ago, I decided to move the larger male and separate them in the tank. One of her babies fell off her back in the move and she immediately stressed and snatched it in her claws and tried to eat it but she was still eating the other one. So i was able to knock this one out of her claw and save it. So this wasn't hunger it was stress related. She only snatches stuff like that if its aggravating her and crawling on her, etc.

So i would assume the answer would be different depending on if your scorpion is giving birth alone without others in the tank and whether she has absolute peace and quiet. The more safe she feels the better off the babies will be.

This depends upon how much of its tail it loses. If severed at or near the tip, it may survive. Injuries closer to the base of the tail are likely to cause bleed out. Most likely, any severe damage to- or piercing of- an arthropod's shell can lead to rapid exsanguination as they have no way to control bleeding.

Are cats immune to scorpions?

If a cat stung a scorpion, it would probably kill it. The venom in a scorpion is enough to kill the average house cat.WRONG.......Actually it will most likely NOT kill a cat. The average house scorpion does NOT have enough venom to kill a cat, only the bark scorpion does and you can tell if it is a bark scorpion if it can climb walls! Scorpions are not monsters but are dangerous, if your house pet starts to drool or have tremors or difficulty breathing they should see a vet but mostly they will live.
