It sells under the Central Morocco label, which is a trade name rather than a collection locality. Big Z's has no verified collection point for these animals and will not invent one. These arrived at 0.75 to 1 inch, small juveniles, exact instar unknown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a medically significant scorpion and Big Z's is not going to soften that. The published review places it in the serious sting class and attributes fatalities to it. There is no hand contact with this animal at any size: long tools, a staged catch cup, a latched enclosure, and a suspected sting means professional care immediately, not wait and see. The setup itself is deliberately plain, which is the point when you are working at arm's length. Flat rock or cork crevices to sit in, a dry exposed surface, one sheltered damp refuge, real ventilation, and a warm gradient. Spice Level 5: Extreme.
