How do scorpions get water in the desert?

Scorpions obtain water in the desert primarily through the moisture in their prey, such as insects and other small animals. They have highly efficient kidneys that minimize water loss and can survive long periods without direct water intake. Additionally, scorpions can absorb water from humidity in the air and from the ground during cooler nighttime temperatures. Their adaptations enable them to thrive in arid environments despite limited water availability.
