What is the black goo in Mockingjay?

[@goodusernamesareoverrated]

I personally think it is tar mixed with and shards metal, and a chemical that can kill on contact. Maybe a liquid version of the fog from catching fire?

[@michellekamaretsos6526]

that’s a very good thought

[@RSTactical]

Or it's actually the Nano hydra in the vaccine they gave people

[@CC-yx2rt]

What if it’s a mixture of tar and a chemical, maybe one that was created by the capital? The capital could have combined the two to create a chemical weapon that is easier to spread?

[@lenachristiaen916]

Maybe there was the same toxic (but liquid) in it as the toxic gasses in the mist in the arena

[@mokuzen4399]

[@raynasomers6266]

I don't fully argee, because the nightlock berries and jaberjays are mutated and tar is a molecule and can't mutate so this doesn't make a lot of sense.

I originally believed the net was somehow caused once coming in contact with the goo, but storydiver explained that the goo triggers other pods, so the net was most likely a pod triggered by Mitchell after Peeta threw him to his death.
