you can tell how venomous a scorpion is by looking at it's claws. a scorpion with big meaty claws isn't very venomous. it just crushes shit with its claws. but a scorpion with small scissor-like claws is something not to fuck with
what the actual fuck are you even talking about? human civilization is built upon manipulating the wild. people do it every day unwittingly. someone playing with spiders in the woods is pretty tame and innocent. I'm more worried about folks trying to burn the whole city down because they saw a little bitty spider. arachnophobes are ridiculous.
