      Just think. You ARE on the menu of some of these predators. And a lot more that were not discussed here. Far as alien versus animals go I think people are interested in both. But they are two different questions. We already know how bizarre the animal kingdom is. Its a matter of exploring it, identifying species and learning their behaviors. With regards to aliens the question is, "do they exist". There is nothing to learn about alien life at this point because it hasn't been discovered yet.

    The assassin bug reminds me that aquatic animals as well as spiders have this ability to puncture and dissolve; and I've often wondered if the technique and possibly similar ingredients might be used to attack and deflate tumors without the more brutal and destructive process of opening up the patient; especially when it comes to brain tumors. So if you're into medical research and haven't done your doctorate; there you go!

      I believe on brain tumors they already have a “cure”. They squirt some kind of fluid inside that wraps around the tumor. The tumor cant reach any more brain material because of the film around it so it “starves” to death. Then they surgically remove it, which is the real killer.

I actually learned that a baby venomous snake is more dangerous than an adult one, because babies can’t control how much venom they inject like an adult can.
    And kudos to all of these animals on this list, really! They’re just doing what they gotta do to survive. But I have to say, insects and small animals have the worst luck in nature.

And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
