LOL...no they don't...the name comes from how fast they run...in shorts spurts up to 10mph

. They are not scorpions but are in the same family as the scorpion, spider and harvestman. Many different names for them and different species all over the world: Wind Scorpion, Sun Spiders, Sun Scorpion, Camel Spider, Jerrymuglum, are all the same thing

E90SoFlo · 06-28-2011, 02:52 PM

ew.

did you kill it

adrean8j · 06-28-2011, 03:03 PM

Man I used a broom and swept it out to a ditch...I was actually to much of a bitch to get any closer than I had to...scariest looking creature I have ever seen in my life....

I did. Most of the shots were up between 1/1600 and 1/4000. That's the only reason the shots were steady. It was just really hard to frame when you are falling over.
