A scorpion has a distinct shape characterized by a segmented body that consists of two main parts: the cephalothorax (prosoma) and the abdomen (opistosoma). The cephalothorax is more compact and features a pair of pincers (chelae) at the front, while the elongated abdomen tapers towards the tail, ending with a curved stinger. Overall, scorpions have a somewhat elongated and arachnid-like appearance, with a combination of hard exoskeleton and flexible joints.

Do whip scorpion harm human?

The Whip Scorpion or Vinergeron is not dangerous to humans. It is *not* a scorpion but does look like one. This is for self protection. The tail has no sting. The animal will emit a noxious, vinegar smelling fluid if disturbed. There is also a critter know as a Wind Scorpion which, again, is not a scorpion but a spider. It has the appearance of a scorpion ( same color, same general body shape) but again no sting and no claws. These will bite and have rather large fangs (4 of them) which can cause nasty infections but neither the Vinergeron or the Wind Scorpion are dangerously venomous.
