Reckon whether folks'll eat it in turn depends on how they got into it. If the serpents and all been eating bodies, means you got to worry on the little ones too, anything what'll scavenge from parts.

If it was big bits, shit they were taking direct, might not be such a worry. Not a lot out there bad enough to take a bite out of one of them in turn — nothing folks'll fish up, at any rate. Y'all get a chance t'open up a belly?
