@TryingtoLava so you knew what they were?

Slows like they're supposedly normally sluggish and normally avoid humans, and while their venom is as dangerous as vipers venom, they barely injected any when they bite...compared to snakes whom can inject a good bit.

@TryingtoLava yes generally speaking I don't trust birds or reptiles.... Which makes even more sense now that we know birds came from reptiles
