Yeah, though they do say stuff like:

" For conservation reasons please do not kill these animals, but catch them and free them in the wild. "

When talking about these guys:

That's just nuts.. Kill on sight.

And they don't mention the most dangerous of all creatures here in LOS.....the two legged kind.

Someone needs to edit the English at the web site and note that the animals are venomous and not poisonous. And I am sorry, but I feel there is a quantum jump in pain between an ordinary bee sting and a scorpion sting.
