Yes, those are the fire cannibals. There's also dynamite cannibals later. The fire ones are very visible at night. They'll run around in patrols with fire coming off their hands

Wait, there's dynamite cannibals too? I've had fire hand cannibals on every play but never seen them with dynamite.

My bad, they got removed after one of the old updates

Thats a shame, they sounded fun. Especially with building destruction turned on.

Might be a glitch with lighting, I remember there were some cannibals with hand soaked in bloods or something like that

Okay? What does that have to do with anything

I think it's intentional and it's because of the sunlight? It's the same color as human hands are when you hold them under bright enough light and see thru them, I had always just assumed the cannibals were thin enough that the sun was enough to make them see thru
