Disclose Notes: Oddly absent was the typical misunderstanding about "having a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner" that occurs in such stories. Though deliberately soft-pedaled, Mr. Tom was actually intended as the main course, if not for the intervention of Chip and Dale.

At the adventure's end, the Chilean authorities deal with the titular "Threat of the Stone-Eaters" in an uncharacteristic way for such a story... "[The stone-eating termites in Slunk's metal container] shall be destroyed! And rest assured my government will find a way to exterminate those left in the valley!".
