Slayer tasks have Different Versions of monsters to kill.

Summoning
Beasts of Burden have extra inventory space, which can be useful when on a long slayer task.

Certain Summoning familiars have the ability to heal the summoner. This effect can be particularly useful if the player is on a long slayer task and running low on food.

Although the Bunyip has a better healing rate than the Void Spinner, the Void Spinner can be useful for the player if he/she doesn't have 68 Summoning.

Note - The healing ability still works even if a player does not have any remaining Summoning points.
