Scorpion is quite a popular insect because of its powerful sting, and it can be found in almost any country or region. Although scorpions are dangerous, this venom can also make you an overnight millionaire.

Don’t be surprised at that, a gallon of scorpion venom (preferably, that of deathstalker) is sold for $39 million. I know that your question will be “why is venom all that expensive?”.

It’s very expensive because of its medicinal value, don’t forget that the venom (chlorotoxin) of scorpion is used for treating cancer because of its ability to stop cancer cells from sending signals to the brain. It is also used in the elimination of malaria in mosquitoes.

Scorpion venom is also costly because it’s not easy to get, since you’d have to milk one scorpion 2.64 million times to fill a gallon. Scientists have now started looking for an efficient way to harness this miracle venom.
