Did you know scorpions are fluorescent under UV light? 🔦✨ When a UV torch hits them, they glow an incredible blue-green thanks to special compounds in their exoskeleton.

One thing’s for sure… it makes spotting them at night a whole lot easier. Absolutely stunning creatures of the night. 🦂 #chipangali #scorpion #education #conservation #research | Chipangali Wildlife O
