Isla Sombra has natural obstacles as well as enemies. The main creature hazard is the river snake, which lurks in tall grass. You can also lose health from falls, and the Enviro Sense skill helps you find things in your surroundings.

Snake bites
Tall grass carries the risk of a bite. Some snakes warn you before biting and some attack without warning, so be careful in tall grass or avoid it. A bite costs health and impairs movement and vision.
| Effect | Value |
|---|---|
| Status added per bite | Strength 0.65 |
| Stamina lost per bite | 25 |
| Stat changes at full strength | Agility -40, Comfort -10 |
| Visual effects | Blurred vision, confusion and tunnel vision |
| Status length | The status table says 300 seconds (5 min) and the balance flag SNAKE-BITE-TIMEOUT says 240 seconds. Nothing says which one wins. |
| Multiple bites | Doses accumulate, and the effect grows over time. Repeated bites can kill you |
Comfort shortens negative statuses, so a comfortable outfit helps. See Player Stats & Attributes and Drug Effects & Status System.
Antivenom
Antivenom is used from a quick slot and fully removes the snake-bite status. Base price and sellers:

The Trapper skill on hireable employees also affects resistance to snake bites. See Clothing & Apparel and Characters & NPCs.
Enviro Sense
Enviro Sense is a special skill that highlights interactive objects around you: dealer spots, dead drops, interactive items (such as amber stones), loot spots and more. Base range is 1,500 game units and it takes 10 seconds to regenerate. See Loot Tables & Dead Drops.
Other hazards
- Falls from a height can take all your health (a developer hint says you then respawn at a medical point, but no hint-table row references that text). Falling also wears your shoes. See Saving, Death & Respawn.
- Tear gas does base damage of 3; gas resistance exists as a clothing stat but is rare.
- Parkour lets you cross fences and natural obstacles and costs stamina; see Stamina, Health & Rest.
