Yes, scorpions, like other arachnids, need to shed their exoskeleton, a process known as molting. This allows them to grow, as their hard outer shell does not expand. During molting, a scorpion will emerge from its old exoskeleton, which is critical for its growth and development. After shedding, it may take some time for the new exoskeleton to harden and provide adequate protection.
