Of all the animals in Red Dead, the snakes are perhaps the most infuriating. For the most part you'll probably not even realise there's one around - until it's jumped up and poisoned you with a bite that drains your cores.

While you might not see them until it's too late, however, the scars of their attack will follow you around. A snake will tend to bite you on the arm or on the hand, and while it might not be entirely visible in third-person, it's hard to miss if you switch to the first-person perspective.

Rather than a small bite, the marks will swell up until you've got two big bulges on your body. It ain't pretty, but it's a reminder that you should constantly be checking your surroundings rather than running blindly into shrubbery.
