Are scorpions able to sense or smell water? Put the dish at the opposite end of her enclosure and within minutes she emerged for the first time in months to drink

Fascinating stuff  Shocked

Their setae (body hairs) are able to sense wind changes, moisture (including water) and prey

Desert species are very moisture sensitive. All my desert scorps know exactly when there is water in the enclosure. Great pic btw Smile
