Mediterranean checkered Scorpion

Mesobuthus Gibbosus

Description:

Mediterranena checkered Scorpion. The size was approximately 7 cm long with tail curled

Habitat:

Rocky, stony, dry gravel

Notes:

We were on drive round the mountain and had just stopped for a rest. My friend's 4 year old son cried out "look a scorpion!!!" I quickly said "where, where?!!" and told the kids to be careful!! He said 'here..." He was holding it by the tail! Fearless...
