"Scorpions are my favorite reptile"
(Sarcasm aside, what's so worrying about lizards? Only a couple types are venomous, only a few more are big enough to seriously hurt you (and most of those live in tropical forest sort of places), and anything smaller is probably just going to run away and hide it you get close to it. Lizards are pretty non-threatening.)
I don't know how common it is, but in some very rural parts of Kentucky and Tennessee in the USA, people frequently referred to scorpions as lizards. Also, regular lizards were called lizards. And newts were called lizards.
It was very confusing to me when I was a young kid. Still is confusing to me if I'm being honest.
I’m sorry are there scorpions in Kentucky?
They're called lizards. Didn't you read my comment?
But all kidding aside, yes, there are scorpions in Kentucky. They aren't large or aggressive and from what I was told their stings don't really hurt very much. Mostly I would see them hiding under rocks and in crevices during the day.
That's pretty rural.
Did your town just have one road named after Bedford Forrest or two?
The majority of spider-related injuries are self-inflicted by people panicking and hurting themselves.
In most lizard-related fatalities, the lizard is the one who is killed
