Facehugger

A facehugger is the second stage in the Alien's life cycle. It has eight long, finger-like legs, which allow it to crawl rapidly, and a long tail adapted for making great leaps. The facehugger’s only purpose is to make contact with the host's mouth for the implantation of an Alien embryo.

DO NOT APPROACH facehuggers if you identify their presence in the colony. DO NOT REMOVE facehugger attached to a person, attempts to remove them generally prove fatal to the host; put the individual into cryosleep until specialist help is available. Your best option now is getting in touch with us.
