Description: SCP-8374 is an extremely large ([data redacted] lbs.) snake-like creature capable of mass destruction. Liquid uranium is the only known substance that can keep it at bay, and [data redacted] caliber lead bullets seem to have a stalling effect. It has one recorded escape, due to an ignorant staff not reading the memo about uranium. However, it was an absolute disaster. 3,158 were killed and 1,293 more were injured. Class 1 amnesiacs had to be administered to thousands, severely dwindling the supply.
