There is a bug common to the area known as the Pillbug (or Rolly Polly as most people call them), but in Pine Creek there is a legend of a giant Pillbug known as the Mary Bug.          

     Although Wikipedia will suggest otherwise, as seen here, the Mary Bug is highly dangerous and extreme caution should be used.  

The following is an idea of what can happen if bitten.

However, there is a story that exists of the only known survivor of the Mary Bite...

A long, long time ago, back in July of 2008, Nick, Tyler, and Natasha were walking along the edge of the woods, collecting timber

at a lookout point

when they spotted the Volvo sized animal

They escaped, but unbeknownst to all of them, Natasha had been bitten.

She had this to say about the terrifying experience.

"It was a terrifying experience."

She also had this to say.

 "I thought my leg was on fire, and someone was trying to put it out with ocean water and salt.

Luckily it didn't hurt me one bit. I thought I was going to die, or worse, be disfigured. But everything turned out fine. I survived the Mary Bite!"
