They are in fact poisonous.

Where did you find him? I thought they were only in the SE corner of the state...
venomous, all scorpions are, just some are a lot more deadly, most are just like a bad bee sting.


More people die from scorpion stings than do from rattle snake bites but the only scorpion considered to be potentially fatal is the bark scorpion usually found in Arizona. They don't bark before they sting you though, they just look like tree bark.
