Collection: [Snipes]

Creatures which have left  'tenderfoots' or 'green' campers 'holding the bag.' - These are more or less directly related to the concept of "snipe hunting" a tradition which has excited since at least 1840. - The ''joke'' is that the so called "snipe" (which bears no relation to the wading bird.) is a purely fictitious entity; only ever existing in the imaginations of those pursuing it. - They might be said to be absolutely delicious in a pie or they could be particularly valuable, other times its left unsaid what they're good for (part of the joke i suppose.) – This section also contains creatures related to 'Wild Goose Chases', 'Tourist teases' or creatures otherwise generally related to 'Hazing, Pranks' 'initiation rituals' etc. (Though indeed, technically all critters could be categorized as such, I don't want to be too general.)
