Rattle snakes are possible, but rare - more common further south. No scorpions. Coyotes, but you rarely see them; you almost always hear them during the night if you're camping along the valley, though. Pronghorns are common on the hills around the valley, but I don't think I've ever seen any down in the valley.
According to the link a few posts up, and some sites I found, there are scorpians there. It's only one species called the northern scorpian. They are also found around MEdicine hat and lethbridge.
