they use their sting tail to protect themselves
All animals and humans need skin to protect themselves and to quite literally, keep their insides... well inside themselves.
The stingrays protect themselves by using their pointy tails to stab people and animals then swim away. Their poison is similar to the rattlesnake's venom.
To camouflage themselves and to hide from preditors
stingrays will often shift themselves on the sea bed in order to cover themselves in sand to disguise themselves. Also Stingrays have poisonous barbs on the back of the tails which in consequence, stings off the attacker.
Stingrays hide themselves under the sand because their only other means of defense is the tiny barb on their tails. This is rarely enough to kill a predator, so they choose to hide so encounters are less frequent.
They protect themselves by squirting ink.
Citizens protect themselves with police departments. Nations protect themselves with a military.

Scorpions protect themselves by having a hard exoskeleton that serves as a physical barrier against predators. They also have venomous stingers that they use for defense when threatened. Additionally, scorpions are nocturnal animals, which helps them avoid many predators that are active during the day.
