All about the scorpion

The scorpion is one of the insects and bugs in our Animal Kingdom. You can find it in deserts and dry places, and it eats insects and spiders. Listen for it: silent, raises its tail. This page is a good fit for ages 6 to 10 (1st to 5th Grade), and Buzzby can read it out loud.

Is the scorpion one of the insects and bugs?

Yes. Insects have six legs and three body parts. Spiders and snails are bugs but not insects.
