Daily Photo #150

This is pretty grotesque but my 14 year old mind thought what the hell.

Picked up in Morocco, they had loads of these so they either had a scorpion farm or a pest problem.

They have these things in EVERY tourist and curio shop in Arizona. Ours are a pale yellow color. They also have severed rattlesnake heads with the fangs extended and whole tarantulas. Usually on a kitschy glitter base with "Arizona" stamped on the base. Gruesome, but there ya have it :)

I've always wanted one of those dead tarantulas. Darn, should have come back to AZ!!
