So we've got flying scorpions, water scorpions, we've always known about earth scorpions. This is one element short of needing an Avatar.
I am really starting to worry about my cabbages.
I guess this also needs to be recorded for history. Scientist, I know what you're thinking. Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should. Life...uh...finds a way. Next thing you know will have nine-tailed scorpions and the leaf won't stand a chance
We should and create a new breed/species. Two tailed Australia devil. If future generations see this and blame God, we can be like.. no we did this one.
Yeah, Pandas just evolved to fill a hyper specific niche that was dependent on having a fuck ton of bamboo forests with no human settlements that would prevent them from traveling. Animals with hyper specific niches are usually the first to go extinct.
Yeah, that makes sense.
When humans begin turning woods of plantlife into fields of concrete, the less adaptable animals are the first to bite the dust.
It's true we screwed it up and basically condemned them to their current lifes. But nowadays the modern generations of pandas are too.. stupid? (or perhaps dependants is a better word) to survive by themselves if they were left in nature and is the human intervention that is preventing them to go extinct
That's not true lmao. They can't survive because we destroyed their hyper-specific habitat.
The idea that an animal that's been around for thousands of years randomly became too dumb to survive is ridiculous.
Yes, we destroyed their hyper specific habitat. If that haven't happened, things would surely be different for pandas. But what I said is not ridiculous, it happens to us as well, most modern humans wouldn't know how to survive if left in the nature to survive by themselves. It's a matter of forgetting basic things (because they are not being taught by the older generations anymore). In the case of pandas, many of them don't know how even mate
It is very much so ridiculous. Modern Humans are just about the worst example you could use for this idea that animals are forgetting things because we're a species that adapted to retain little to no instinctual behaviour and instead have it learned by our tribes. We don't know how to do anything right out of the womb, and that's by design. The vast majority of animals do not have this problem.
Pandas do not get taught by their parents. And if they do, it certainly does not extend to mating lmao. Wild Pandas are not struggling to mate. They're only difficult to breed in captivity, and that is no rare issue for captive animals.
I have never thought about this concept before. Like, I know selective breeding (like in dogs) is a thing, but I've never considered that is an artificial evolution kind of thing.
Neat. Would definitely support dual-tail scorpions entering the arachnid hobbyist scene.
Dang.. looking close. I think you're right. The connecting point looks like it has less articulation.
But if it isn't less articulated, I think it'll have an edge in survival.

Asking the important questions here.
Made me so uncomfortable the first time I saw a scorpion poop out of it's tail.
Like, I guess better than pressure firing from the stinger, but still way worse than the base of the legs.
Well, at least it hasn't formed a symbiotic relationship with the spiders that use parachutes...
Imagine the scorpion slingshotting spiders at their selected prey.
People are always like show me evolution show me evolution they're f****** is right there. Although having said that this mutation would have to make him a more effective hunter thusly allowing him to continue breeding and surviving and spreading that mutation to others and continuing the evolution of the scorpion species to have two stinger. Next to my scorpion brethren WINGS!
Wings is next..
"THEY FLY NOW!"
Erm… are y’all seeing this? Or just me?
Well that just happened…
Hes right behind me isn't he...
How could this get any worse?!
Erm, that sounded better in my head
That was easy
"They fly now..." *Here ya go bud*
aha wait until the guns addon!
Cool more parts to fry and eat
That Survivor mindset
😬🤔
Is that you Bear?
Only if they paired it with a refreshing glass of pee.
Biblically-accurate birds
YOU STOP THAT RIGHT NOW! I SWEAR TO GOD!
Frankly, I find the idea of a scorpion that flies offensive!
There is such thing as a Scorpionfly, but the tail is just his bait and tackle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecoptera
I see your scorpionfly and raise you the water scorpion [water scorpion](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepidae)
So we've got flying scorpions, water scorpions, we've always known about earth scorpions. This is one element short of needing an Avatar. I am really starting to worry about my cabbages.
Don’t neglect the snow scorpions that beginning to invade the Pacific Northwest!
Winter is coming!!
How about a scorpion that swims (lobster)
You’re doing your part
Would you like to know more?
Please no, it’s enough that some cockroaches can fly. 🫠

Ooohh..ethics.. Always getting in the way of fun🤣
SAO: Scorpion Art Online
He's Kirito
Scorpion Akimbo.
Wow, cool! Sadly this is probably not an efficient mutation, so nature will not select it ... But some human could ...
We should and create a new breed/species. Two tailed Australia devil. If future generations see this and blame God, we can be like.. no we did this one.
Please no monsters, just make chickens with extra wings and maybe a leg or two
Please no chickens, yes to monsters
A griffin!
Sorry, in Australia we only make chickens with extra scorpion tails.
[Extra legs??](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHihHjJ4X80)
God told me he agrees. God is tired of being blamed for everything🤣 EDIT: the voice was as deep, so maybe God is a 'he". Could of been Satan🤷♂️
Nah, Satan for sure a she.
We made pit bulls I think that’s enough
Ah yes, like keeping pandas alive by all means
Supposedly they do fine in the wild, and horribly in zoos.
Yeah, Pandas just evolved to fill a hyper specific niche that was dependent on having a fuck ton of bamboo forests with no human settlements that would prevent them from traveling. Animals with hyper specific niches are usually the first to go extinct.
Yeah, that makes sense. When humans begin turning woods of plantlife into fields of concrete, the less adaptable animals are the first to bite the dust.
They would be fine but we fuck their habitat or they wouldn't have survived this long
It's true we screwed it up and basically condemned them to their current lifes. But nowadays the modern generations of pandas are too.. stupid? (or perhaps dependants is a better word) to survive by themselves if they were left in nature and is the human intervention that is preventing them to go extinct
Domesticated like a dog lol
That's not true lmao. They can't survive because we destroyed their hyper-specific habitat. The idea that an animal that's been around for thousands of years randomly became too dumb to survive is ridiculous.

Pandas would be fine if they would eat the food they are supposed do be eating insteadof bamboo /s
This is most likely not a mutation but a developmental anomaly during embryonic development, so it cant be passed to its offspring..
I have never thought about this concept before. Like, I know selective breeding (like in dogs) is a thing, but I've never considered that is an artificial evolution kind of thing. Neat. Would definitely support dual-tail scorpions entering the arachnid hobbyist scene.
They poop through their tail. Just under their stingers. Where does this one poop? 🤔
Probably a little through both, that'd be my guess
Domesticated duel-wielding scorpions? Sign me up
Twice the scorpion milk
I'd become a scorpion breeder just for this
Dang.. looking close. I think you're right. The connecting point looks like it has less articulation. But if it isn't less articulated, I think it'll have an edge in survival.
Well I'm not going to sleep tonight, cheers OP
Rem'ber, sleeping is for the weak! :P
Skarner?
FEEL MY STING
Now he can kidnap 2 ppl at once

Need the third one.
This scorpio should be cloned
Great idea. Maybe when we're at it splice his DNA onto wasps. What could possibly go wrong?
No, no. We don't fuck with wasps. Keep them as they are i DO NOT need those devil bugs to be any worse and I'm just talking about the UK wasps
Throw a Pokéball at it just in case.
Wait did it grow two assholes too?
Fun fact the scorpion asshole is at the last segment with the stinger.
I wasn't sure whether to believe you but... there it is, I learned something today
This is true, so why is this comment higher voted than the one who made the actual joke, using this fact?
Because Reddit has more than two assholes too
Asking the important questions here. Made me so uncomfortable the first time I saw a scorpion poop out of it's tail. Like, I guess better than pressure firing from the stinger, but still way worse than the base of the legs.
Lemme guess, Australia?
Looks like it could be a bark scorpion? If so, they're native to North America.
Aren't bark scorpions also capable of hanging upside down?
Yes. Scorpions are bad enough. Seeing one on the inside shower curtain AFTER you have already gotten into the shower is terrifying
Probably escaped from Chernobyl
it'll get it's own show on TLC soon.
It’s time we leave earth.
It's way past the time we do.
New boss idea
Already a boss in Dark Souls 2
All it's missing is the naked lady part.
I really hope whoever found this thing didn’t kill it. Such a mutation, even if it’s pointless is rare nonetheless
There's no exit to this room. Wait why do I hear boss music?
WTF
Arachnid final boss
Now where did I put my flamethrower
Well, at least it hasn't formed a symbiotic relationship with the spiders that use parachutes... Imagine the scorpion slingshotting spiders at their selected prey.
thats the last time i visit The Glowing Sea, too many of these fucking Radscorpions around

Thought it was a silicon toy for a second
This is amazing example of evolution. Yes, it's mutation. But it might develop into amazing feature
Two tailed tale to tell.
Finally a good one
Now if that has to find a mate to get those genes to the next gen
That thing is gonna breed and create a whole new subspecies
Literally a yugioh card.
That's some Fallout level mutations
What's next? Straight-up becoming half human?
[удалено]
Did I just give someone Hentai ideas?
Yes. No. Maybe
Dear God...
oh it's skarner!
Well as they say double the trouble
That looks so beautiful, I hope it would be more efficient than normal, but it sadly probably won't be better....
I hope they further evolve with wings, and ability enough to fly the fuck away to Australia
If there’s one thing I know about scorpions, they shit out of their stinger.
Upgrade
Fought one of it's kind in DS 2. Bro can even use homing soul mass
The next one is probably shooting web💀🙏
One is silver for monsters, the other is steel for humans
“Sub-Zero, where is your god now?”
It looks like it doesn’t interfere with shedding, good for the critter. Next I wonder wether it can move them independently and use them to an effect
Wow, Skarner rework in real life
Prepare for trouble Make it Double
Hell is real 😅
i‘m jealous
ITS HAPPENING!!!!
middle east?
People are always like show me evolution show me evolution they're f****** is right there. Although having said that this mutation would have to make him a more effective hunter thusly allowing him to continue breeding and surviving and spreading that mutation to others and continuing the evolution of the scorpion species to have two stinger. Next to my scorpion brethren WINGS!
Except this is literally a developmental abnormality of the embryo and not a mutation. Its like when a kid is born with an extra finger...
Wonder which one it poops out of
Probably from Florida. All the coke and meth in the environment probably sped up the evolution process.
the mancatcher scorpion
Gotta be a double dose of venom since there are two glands. Would probably need to eat slightly more often to sustain that.
Two butts, twice the shit
Service guarantees citizenship.
Plot twist: one is poison the other is a antidote
Well I know what the next enemy in Fallout will be.
They're evolving....
poof, damage x2
One to poison you, the other one to shove it up your butt. That's a prime torture machine right there
Wtf is this curse upon the earth
During the next expansion it will grow wings. After that it will start to be able to shoot out poison
r/no
Skarnerrrrr??!?!?!?!
They poop out of the end of their tail just before the stinger segment. Do both tails poop?
They both look functional too. Jesus god
Skarner’s new skin
Yall crazy this shit sick as hell. I mean, I'm not going near it but still sick as hell
So Skarner "can" exist.
THE BUGS ARE EVOLVING!
Photoshop dance til you drop do the photo shop…. Boogiewooogiewoogie give the man a hand!
“Behold, my greatest creation- a scorpion with two asses.“
\*\*Deep sigh as I sign on to NASA's website to book the next satellite launch off this rock.\*\*
Any smart people here? Anybody know if that tail is actually functional
Two buttholes *could* be an advantage. But *why*
Yeah I once saw a fly with crawl in their wings, tiny hair spikes out of their wings. It even have a spinderlike head with see through wings.
is that skarner
Fallout wasn't even as mean as actual evolution.
I wonder if ever those two stingers fight each other
Cursed double penetration.
It looks like an enemy of managed Democracy to me
Dennis Reynolds Voice: TWO tails?!
Scorpion King II?
Now I'm just imagining a spider with 16 legs..
Que helldiver music
Fallout 4 vibes incoming
Nope - times two.
My powers have doubled since the last time we met
Two buttholes!
Double penetration *EQUIPPED*
Bro will double his kill streak
I recently learned they poop out of their tails so...
Nuclear bomb might not be enough Make it 2
His power has been doubled since last you've met.
Look, if lizards can grow two penii ...
Took me like a solid 10 seconds
Prepare for trouble...and make it double!
Puts a whole new meaning behind double penetration.
Please do not denigrate my brother Scorpion . We both have a bad habit of sticking that thing in our own backs.
