The most dangerous scorpion in the world is the Indian red scorpion. The red appearance of this scorpion is itself considered as a warning to the mankind. This scorpion is a native to India and is found in abundance in the different regions of India, Sri Lanka, Nepal as well as Pakistan.
This certainly holds true for the spitting thicktail which is regarded as the most dangerous scorpion in Southern Africa. With a lethal dose of 4.25 mg/kg, the venom itself is around the same potency as cyanide. The scorpions size and ability to deliver a large dose contribute to the thicktailâs reputation.
