What is the best scorpion for a pet?
"Well, what I would do is not have a scorpion. They might sting you with their stinger on the tail so the answer is NO!"
Another perspective:I have 12 different species of scorpions and have never gotten stung. Now you shouldn't just pick up any scorpion you find on a desert or rain forest, as some are lethal and the area you live might have some laws against having animals caught from the wild. You can find one at a local pet store for a cheap price. Before getting one please make sure you did your research on your scorpion and have all things needed to make a suitable home for your scorpion before you bring it home. Hope you change your mind about this rather beautiful creature and start an active hobby that will bring you lots of fun times.

I don't know for sure if there are scorpions in Ohio, however I was climbing a very rocky/dirt cliff at the Metro Park in Euclid, Ohio (suburb of Cleveland) and something crawled out and stung me on my left arm. I never saw what it was. My entire arm went numb. There was minor pain and some swelling at the site of the sting. The numbness lasted several hours and then gradually went away. I've been trying to find out if there are scorpions in Ohio. I guess it could have been some sort of Wasp.
