The wind scorpion is in the arachnida class. They are also called Solifugae, Camel Spiders, Wind Scorpions, and Sun Spiders. Although they are in the arachnida class, they are not a true spider or scorpion.
They are a very aggressive hunter usually eating small insects but have been known to eat small snakes, lizards, and rodents.
They are usually found in dry, arid locations but some species can be found in grassland and forest habitats.
