Interesting Facts:

 Mastigoproctus giganteus, the giant whip scorpion, also called the giant vinegaroon or grampus, is a species of whip scorpions in the family Thelyphonidae.

  • They are a unique insect for a classroom projects, science projects, a gift for your favorite friends who like creepy crawly things or as a favorite pocket pet for yourself.
  • Males can live for 10 years while females can live up to 20 years.
  • They consume small insects, worms, and slugs. 
  • They can grow up to six inches, and can discharge a liquid that smells like vinegar from their tail. 
  • These interesting critters can be intimidating-looking but are actually harmless arachnids. 
  • Vinegaroons are entirely nocturnal, and emerge from their dank holes in the earth nightly to stalk hungrily and ominously over the Land of the Tiny.
  • They are exclusively carnivorous, and feed primarily upon other arthropods, like crickets, cockroaches, and millipedes, which they pin down with their beefy, scorpion-like, wire-cutter pedipalps.
  • They are also equipped with a sharp spine on the inside surface of the claw, which is more or less a barb, immobilizing the prey and paving the way for the merciless crushing of their prey's brittle exoskeleton, allowing the vinegaroon on to leisurely lap up the critter's hemorrhaging fluids like a cat at a water dish.
  • The hard part, though, is finding the food in the first place. Vinegaroons have eight small eyes, two at the front of the head segment (the prosoma) and three flanking each side, but the eyesight they provide is not that good.  So, they rely on sensing vibrations to locate their prey. 
  • One very distinct and curious feature of whip scorpions is its long thin caudal appendage, which is directly related to their common name "whip-scorpion."
  • The common name ‘Vinegaroon' is related to their ability to give off a spray of concentrated (85%) acetic acid from the base of the whip-like tail.
