Maybe if I cut the stingers off first... they are so easy to find out here, all you need is a pair of tongs, a bucket, a flashlight and a moonless night!
We have a flying grasshopper out in my meadow that are readily accepted.
They are just so hard to catch, the little buggers sit there until just before you can net it, then take flight so quick that the hit/miss ratio favors the grasshopper's safe escape.
But so much fun to watch the lizards chase.... the grasshopper always loses.
I wouldn't drink it unless I boiled it There's all kinds of nasty bacteria and parasites that could be in there.
Fresh water from a natural stream tastes like nothing else on planet!! I would never dtink from a river but the streams in our local woods are amazing

Erm dont you feed them nightcrawlers from over here?
and those locust things you find hopping round your field?
and seafood...
Unless of course scorpions from NA are likely to have poisonous flesh.
Good point, My only concern is this mate.
The North American scorpions are (lethal) venomous, the big Emperor scorpions are not.
The north American toad is non lethal to our native reptiles, they are now an invasive species in Australia, Even the mighty Perentie & Lace Goanna are dropping like flies from eating them.
Everything I feed my lizards has been tried before by others with no ill effects.
So maybe it's just paranoia, but I wouldn't want to try it with my animals.

The venom side of things would be an issue, beyond that i dont see it being a problem, as a rule i avoid amphibians & brightly coloured inverts.
