Why does the tailless whip-tail scorpion have no tail unlike a normal scorpion that has a tail with a venom stinger?

The name "Tailless whip-tail scorpion" is a misnomer. The tailless whip scorpion is actually not a scorpion at all. It is, however, in the group that both Spiders and scorpions belong to called the Arachnids. Arachnids are not insects; arachnids have two body parts and eight legs whereas insects have three body parts and six legs. Tailless whip scorpions belong to the group Amblypigidae. They are reclusive animals that live in dark places such as under the bark of trees and in cellars. Their first set of legs has actually elongated and become incredibly sensitive, serving the same function as antenna in insects -- to tell them about the world around them. They have no venom but catch their prey with their large spiny pedipalps. To people they're completely harmless, other than the ability to give a slight pinch.

Do bumble bees leave their stingers?
Yes it does have a stinger but it does not lose it when it stings you. It is a hornet and since it doesn't lose its stinger when it stings you it can sting you over and over again. I have ran over a hornet nest entrance and they attacked with full force and didn't let up until a minute or so later. I ran flinging my arms and smacking them but it didn't do much of anything at all and it hurts for hours unlike wasps that don't lose their stingers either.

She lived a normal, healthy, active life until she died just recently at 13 years old.
