Hope the little critter wasn't claustrophobic.

That is just one more creepy, crawling thing with claws and a stinger set free in Utah. I hope they all crawl back under their rock.

As he exited the fossil, the Scorpion was heard to say: "Here I am, rock me like a hurricane."

I think he should have fed him and then set him free!

Alligators sometimes go a year without eating.

Scorpions can live a long time without food or water. They're pretty sturdy critters. 15 months is quite a while, but I'm not at all surprised.
Finding a scorpion in a sandstone rock containing a fossil -- pretty cool.
Findind a scorpion in a shoe with your foot --- priceless.

When we were renting a house one time, we found a dead scorpion in a lightbulb in a closet.
Still haven't figured that one out.
I would've smooshed it though.

Lord I hate those things. Spent 2 years getting rid of them.
They can live anywhere for any amount of time. Completely unpredictable. I dropped one in a jar of rubbing alcohol and it swam around in there for quite a while until I finally poured it out and smooshed it.

How is this possible? Maybe originally there were two scorpions trapped in the there... ;-)

What do hibernating scorpions dream of?
