Snarks are small, fast and aggressive Xenian creatures that attack anyone in their vicinity. Once released, they will bounce around and bite their enemies for about 15 seconds before self-destructing. The Xen military occasionally uses them to create biological tripmines, but the player can also use them as a 'smart grenade' if they can grab a nest (see
weapon_snark
).
