Hmmm. The scorpion is non-migratory. I wonder if it was carried by an unladen swallow?

In a saner time, the guy with a scorpion on his bag would simply have asked his fellow passengers to give his some space, shaken it off the bag and embedded it in the ground.
No more will be crawling 'round . . .
He's imbedded in the ground . . .
Boris the spider . . .
Wasn't that from a Brit rock song?

London Underground staff were quickly on hand. . . . Specialist wildlife crime officers from BTP went to the station to remove the creature. . . . I contacted London Zoo and made arrangements to take the animal there to be assessed. I'm curious. What was the total number of specialized bureaucrats who arranged the capture, transportation, and assessment of this scorpion? Did any of them give it a kiss? I doubt if they'd be so careful and considerate if they arrested someone for quoting Winston Churchill on the subject of Muslims.

Us too. I wonder how many would go out of their way to save a human.

The scorpion really is a beautiful animal and its a shame that it has been exposed to such a stressful situation.Appallingly insensitive of the authorities to fail to shut down and evacuate the tube station in order to spare the poor creature such terrible stress. /s
To: nickcarraway
Who calls the cops for a bug?! Just step on it and get on with your life.

Good grief, what a bunch of pussies. In Texas when we see scorpions or tarantulas, we just squash’em and move on.
For cry’in out loud.

Man screams when he sees a scorpion. The pussification of the modern world continues. Not to mention the fact that they called the “authorities” to handle it instead of stomping on it and going to work.
