This is the vinegaroon. And yes, they shoot vinegar from their butt. Also known as whip scorpions these arachnids are neither a scorpion nor a spider. They reside in their own unique order known as uropygi. They’re practically blind despite having eight eyes and they sense their surroundings using their long skinny front legs and the tiny hairs on their body. And ok, I kinda lied, they don't actually shoot vinegar, but acetic acid which smells strongly like vinegar and burns about the same. They also don’t bite and the worst they can really do is squirt you in the eye.
