Darwin's Danger Shield is a community-created secondary weapon for the Sniper. It is a crocodile hide, complete with waving tail, stretched over a broken wooden frame. A bird skull is tied to the brown leather body strap.
Like the Razorback, Darwin's Danger Shield is worn on the Sniper's back. Instead of protecting the wearer from backstabs, it grants a passive bonus of an additional 25 maximum health, encouraging users to venture further into combat but depriving them of a secondary weapon.
Equipping Darwin's Danger Shield also grants the wearer 15% resistance from bullet damage, enough resistance for the wearer at full health to survive a fully charged bodyshot or uncharged Headshot from any Sniper Rifle. As a trade-off, the wearer receives 20% extra damage from explosive sources such as rockets, grenades, stickybombs, and Sentry Gun rockets. However, the extra health counteracts this downside, giving the Sniper 126 effective health against explosives.

Trivia
- The name of the weapon may be a reference to a multitude of things. Darwin may refer to the capital of the Northern Territory in Australia, the Sniper's home country. Crocodiles are also often found around Darwin. Darwin may also refer to Charles Darwin, who is known for proposing the scientific theory of natural selection and the theory of Evolution.
- The first version of the shield had jiggleboned legs plus had the crocodile skin stretched over the full shield instead of being tanned on a stretching board, but these were removed in the creation process.[1]
