Default My mission is complete

As many of you know, ever since I got to the Middle East, it has been my quest to catch either a scorpion, or a camel spider. Last night, I completed my mission. It turns out, the day I finally stopped looking for one, it came right into my room. He was chilling out on my roomates bed. I've got him in a tupperware bowl with some holes poked in the top. I got some pictures of him, and I will post them up tomorrow!

That little sucker is aggressive. He attacked the toothpick that I was prodding his legs with, and when he did, he moved so fast that it scared the hell out of me, dispite the fact that he was secured in his little prison with the lid on.

It bites like a spider, but it has 4 fangs. It's an evil little bastard. It's fangs kind of remind me of the Predator. Here is a picture of one (not mine, but it's the pic that made camel spiders legendary) http://www.camelspiders.net/large-ca...er-picture.htm
