Emperor scorpions are very gentile creatures. These all black, shiny arthropods can reach lengths up to 8 inches (20 centimeters). Their average lifespan is about 8 years on average. Although the seem intimidating due to their massive size, they are mostly harmless. A sting from an Emperor scorpion only burns for a few minutes and then fades away. If an Emperor scorpion were to pinch you with its large claws, it would be very painful. The only reason it would pinch you would be because it was handled the wrong way. The correct way to handle an Emperor scorpion is to cup it in you hand.
