All scorpion species possess venom. In general, scorpion venom is described as neurotoxic in nature. Scorpions use their venom to kill or paralyze their prey so that it can be eaten; in general it is fast-acting, allowing for effective prey capture. The effects of the sting can be severe. However, scorpion venoms are optimized for action upon other arthropods, and therefore most scorpions are relatively harmless to humans; stings produce only local effects (such as pain, numbness or swelling). A few scorpion species, however, mostly in the family Buthidae, can be dangerous to humans. Just remember, avoid the small ones (their the deadlier kind) and you can trust the big ones.
