Non-Human Threats---SPIDERS and SCORPIONS

[Patriotic Sheepdog]

Okay, lets not forget some other critters that could take us down. Sure, less likely for an adult to die, but imagine a fellow tribe member that has a Brown Recluse bite that has necrotic tissue that needs to be derided and then allowed to heal. It could take months and that person you relied on for pulling security, or patrols, etc now is bed ridden. Make sure you look at the slideshow to see what could happen.
