I Am Here To Inform You.

People have been posting various rude responses to an arachnid pf mine that is nearly harmless. This is Lily, a tailless whip scorpion. I thought the creature was a female when he was acquired, but a few months of growth extended the arm joints to the proportions of a male. He is nearly blind, and can only distinguish lighting. To sense movement, the set of legs were replaced with antennae to perceive the vibrations -- hence the title of 'whip scorpion'. This type of whip is tailless, and cannot eject acetic acid like the vinegaroons. The pedipalps are no danger as well. The front 'arms' are used for grasping prey, and only have the texture of a slightly thorny twig. Since my Lily is quite docile, I have never experienced it. As for the fangs, there is no venom, and there were no reports given of this breed actually surpassing the skin during a bite. I may put him on my face eventually take pictures as well, since that is a thing among owners.
