Soon after their first moult, the babies drop off from their mothers' backs and are able to feed on their own. This usually happens in about 2 weeks. But sometimes, they remain on the mother until after the second moult, feeding off the remains of the mother's kills. Many creatures relish scorpions especially birds, bats and small mammals. They are also preyed upon by large spiders like tarantulas, large centipedes and lizards.
Some animals have partial immunity to the venom of their favourite scorpion snack.
But if stung with enough venom, they will still be affected. All of them attack the scorpion's stinger first. Like other predators, scorpions also control prey populations. Their exoskeleton contains a protein which fluoresces. Scorpion exoskeleton continues to fluoresce even after they dead, specimens preserved in alcohol and even fossilised scorpions continue to fluoresce.
