Snarks are little aliens that would love to peck your face off. While they are seen in the single-player game as enemies, you can also pick up a pack of your own to throw at the human enemies. Be careful in using them, as, much like the [[#Laser Tripmine|laser mines]], they don't distinguish between friend and foe. If you throw one when there are no enemies around or they run out of enemies, they will not hesitate to turn on you. Snarks have almost no health and die after taking the least amount of damage or on their own after 15 seconds. They are most devastating when unleashed in groups and are one of the more effective weapons against [[Half-Life/Enemies#Assassin|assassins]]. When encountered in the game, because of their incredible speed and small size, the best strategy is to run and wait for their 15 seconds of life to expire, at which point they explode into little green chunks. There's a small glitch with snarks in which you can stack them underneath yourself to create a short platform.  By aiming directly under your feet and firing, you'll create them underneath yourself, thus lifting you upwards slightly.
