The Darwin's Danger Shield is a craftable secondary weapon for the Sniper class. It appears as a crocodile hide, complete with tail, strung to a wood canvas. A bird skull is tied to the body strap.
Similar to the Razorback, Darwin's Danger Shield is a passive item that is worn as a shield protecting the back. It provides an additional 25 max health to the Sniper wearing it. It does not, however, protect the player from backstabs.

Trivia
- The name of the weapon may be a reference to a multitude of things. Firstly, Darwin may refer to the capital of the Northern Territory in Australia, the Sniper's home country. Crocodiles are also often found around Darwin. On the other hand, Darwin may refer to Charles Darwin, who is known for proposing the scientific theory of natural selection.
- The tail of the Darwin's Danger Shield is jiggleboned.
- This item might come from the same crocodile as Ol' Snaggletooth or the Trophy Belt.
- The first version of the shield had jiggleboned legs, but they were removed in the creation process. [1]
- Darwin's Danger Shield was the first item to be featured on the Mann co. store front page.
- The bird's skull may be from an Egyptian Plover, a small bird that feeds off scraps of food stuck in the crocodile's teeth.
