Scorpion Finds Home in Maine Wrestling Mat | Portland Maine News

A Maine wrestling club stumbled upon a surprise when unpacking new mats — a live baby striped bark scorpion hiding in the cracks. Initially thought dead, the tiny critter woke up and prompted a call to animal experts from Mr. Drew’s, who’ve seen similar surprises before, including spiders and geckos in shipments. The scorpion, now named “Odin” after the club, will join their educational program to teach about exotic animals. A wild reminder: sometimes the most unexpected guests show up in the most unlikely places — and experts are just a call away.
