The plague? RFK has been on the job half a year and the plague is already back?
I think armadillos and prairie dogs harbor the disease. Don’t mess with them!
Edit: armadillos might be leprosy, can’t remember for sure right now
You'd think the shell would be enough but nope, armadillos had to go for biological warfare too. Jerks!
Apparently also chipmunks.
