Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is stored in a computer inside a standard containment cell in Site-120. All internet access is disabled on the computer. Any researcher wishing to analyze or manipulate the source code of SCP-XXXX needs to have the approval of two Level 3 personnel, and should be cautious not to open SCP-XXXX. In the case that SCP-XXXX is opened, security personnel will terminate the ensuing predatory organism, and janitorial staff will clean the containment cell.

Description: SCP-XXXX is an unnamed file with the extension .roar. SCP-XXXX takes no storage space on a computer, and can be opened with any program. Analyzing the source code of SCP-XXXX shows that it is written in an unidentified programming language1.

Upon opening SCP-XXXX, a random predatory organism capable of uttering a sound that constitutes a roar will manifest2. Upon materializing, SCP-XXXX will voice a roar and attack any humans or animals in their vicinity. Organisms generated by SCP-XXXX, hereafter referred to as instances of SCP-XXXX-1, do not appear to differ from naturally occurring organisms in any way. Autopsies performed on terminated instances show an identical anatomy, and DNA tests have also proven to be indistinguishable.

If SCP-XXXX is not sent to another computer within 72 hours, it will take control of any email accounts on the computer and send itself to random email-addresses3. It generally sends about 70-120 emails.

The final component of SCP-XXXX is a non-anomalous text file named "READ ME PLEASE.txt". The text file contains an introduction the user, and bids them congratulations on being one of the few lucky receivers chosen to test out "A revolutionary stride in biotechnology". The writer of the file encourages users to tinker with the file, insinuating that doing so will grant them an obedient version of a predatory animal. As the text file has been thoroughly examined and no anomalous properties have been found, a copy of the file has been placed below.
