Today we will be studying Item number SCP-822: Landmine Cacti, Object class: Euclid.


 
SCP-822 is a species of cactus similar in appearance to Peyote. As SCP-822 nears maturity, a large gas sac forms within the center of the plant. This sac is filled with volatile gasses and several substances unique to SCP-822. 
 
Through an unknown mechanism, whenever any living creature of sufficient mass approaches within 3 meters of SCP-822, the central portion containing the gas sac violently detonates, causing shrapnel-like shards of SCP-822's skin to fly through the air. These fragments are capable of embedding themselves into the skin and flesh of any living creatures nearby, which carry the seeds of SCP-822 away. Living creatures struck by these fragments that do not die from physical trauma eventually succumb to a potent neurotoxin synthesized by the fragments within 3 to 6 hours.
