* After the children of strawberry poison dart frogs hatch, their mothers carry them one at a time before they die, and bring them to the big Among the leaves of bromeliad plants on the tree, there is a puddle of water, just enough for a tadpole to inhabit. She lays an unfertilized egg every few days for her child to eat;
* After the seal succeeds in catching the baby penguin, she must toss the baby penguin Come and tear the meat off-_-

2. Reptiles and amphibians
* Komodo dragons are originally three meters long and can kill a deer, even if they can bite a buffalo and use venom to make it cup. After following it for three weeks, you can enjoy the buffalo;
* The male red garter snake that hibernates and oversleeps loses the opportunity to mate with the female snake because he doesn’t want to spend a few more hours in the sun, pretending to give off the smell of a female snake to attract a large number of males The snake rushed over and raised its body temperature within a few minutes -_-
3. The mammals seem to be nothing fresh

4. Fish
* Schools of flying fish lay their eggs on the palm leaves falling into the water, and the weight of the eggs makes the palm leaves sink. Enter the water, and some fish will be trapped in the eggs and die;
* The adult eel can't get out of the hole. The source of the food is a mystery, maybe it's the child who regurgitated it;
* Mudskippers dance and courtship by bouncing themselves off the ground and falling back to the ground. They use their mouths to dig a hole, so even if there is a large pile of cylindrical mud outside the hole, they will actually suck air and spit it into the air chamber of the U-shaped hole. The eggs have fresh air;
* The little goby (I feel that the translation of the NetEase open class is wrong) can actually rely on its mouth to follow the stone wall against the waterfall, and a small amount can successfully go up to the slow water area a little upstream of the waterfall to reproduce; The fish follows the shark and cleans the skin by using shark skin like sandpaper;
* Thousands of anchovies can confuse the sea lion, but I don’t know why...sharks can defeat this strategy...

* The pink courtship ceremony of 1 million flamingos is truly spectacular

. 6. Insects
* A male Darwin beetle has to climb a tree more than 20 meters high to find a female. When he meets other males, he uses a big horn to lift the Y and throw it down the tree. After throwing a group of males, it finally finds the female and uses the big horns to imprison her and mate successfully. , But this wicked thing stayed the same, and raised the female again and threw it under the tree...
* The dragonfly poke a hole in the plant stem under the water to lay eggs in it, and the air bubbles on the wings can make her in the water Breathe down;
* The monarch butterfly will fly over the United States and travel 3,000 kilometers to Mexico to avoid winter and lay eggs. Before that, its range of activity was a few hundred meters. The tree-filled monarch butterflies are so spectacular. They are very vulnerable when hibernating. Some birds know how to get rid of the poisonous parts of their bodies. Bad birds also get a lot of butterflies to the ground. They are unable to climb back to the tree and freeze to death at night. After 4 months of hibernation, the trees full of butterflies wake up, very spectacular. It’s hard to imagine that the birds have eaten for four months and there are still butterflies full of trees that have not been destroyed;
* Alkali flies can neutralize alkalis, so they can live in the Dead Sea and dive into the water to eat algae. The hairs on the body can carry air bubbles for them to breathe. , But hundreds of thousands of Wilson sandpipers will pass by here when they migrate. Compared with seagulls running stupidly on the beach with their mouths open, their fly-catching skills are obviously much higher. When they left after four weeks, their weight had already doubled. ;
* Acid spray beetles rely on eating ants to get acid, which can drive away the mongoose. A small lizard simulates the pattern and crawling appearance of this beetle, which is enough to fool predators;
* Stick insects can spray bitter oil mass alkenyl;
* crow reddish brown forest ant-based group, the result was also sprayed away;
* fart worm corrosive liquids can be ejected, the tail ejection frequency is 500 times per second, it is possible to sufficiently cool;
* mother to bear The honey nest that stung her child was ruined, and the bees had to eat all the honey, threw down their children, and went to other places to build nests;
* The mother of the Japanese vermillion bug would bring a rare fruit into the hole to feed the baby, which is unfortunate. The fruit that the mother picked up was robbed by another robber mother. Their children waited too long to eat the fruit before they ran to the robber mother’s house. As a result, the robber mother had to raise two litters of children, and finally treated them as her children. 'S last meal
* The strong ones in the leaf-cutter ants cut the leaves, and the weak ones are on the ground and wait for the leaf fragments to fall and take them home. After chopped up, they are fed with fungi. Then they feed on fungi. Their nests are also good for ventilation. Let fresh air send away carbon dioxide metabolized by fungi.

7. Predators and prey
* The ibex baby was born on the cliff. For food and water, it needs to go down the mountain. The lamb also slid down very nb, and the lone lamb escaped the big fox and stayed there. Where goats can stand;

When the snake was found, the mother squirrel made the tail bloodshot, and swayed the tail to pour soil on the rattlesnake, pretending to be another big rattlesnake Scared the bad snake away;
* The female killer whale swam back and forth into the shallows to make waves and wanted to rush the baby walrus into the deep water. It is the only killer whale in the world that hunts like this. I wonder if this method can be passed to her. The cubs around.

8. Deep-sea creatures
* A dead seal attacked a large group of scavengers on the bottom of the sea. It turned out that in addition to whale landings, there were also seal landings;
* The big male squid can grab females to mate, but the small males can turn their skin into the color of females. Thus fooled the male squid to mate;

* Corals began to grow on the shipwreck, but the algae also covered the hull. At night, the corals stretched out their fibers to fight against their opponents and digest them. The quicker wins.

9. Plants
* Lonetail pine is the oldest plant in the world, it can only grow for 6 weeks a year, and its needles can be retained for 30 years without falling. Due to its extremely slow growth and long life span, some are 5000 years old;
* Pandanus is located It is cold, so hug the stamens tightly with petals, it is difficult for bees to pollinate, but Australian magpies will tear the petals and pecking at the nectar, so the stamens are exposed. If you are lucky, the stamens will be pollinated before freezing;
* Monarch butterflies are migrating During the process, it will pollinate milkweed and lay eggs. Milkweed is the only plant that monarch butterfly larvae eat. 1/3 of the larvae can survive the first day. When the larvae grow up, they can bite the veins and drain the lotion, so that the milkweed loses its defense function. After the pupation, the monarch butterfly sucks nectar and pollinates;
* Only one kind of purple Hummingbirds can suck red leaf Hexanthus and pollinate them;
* Menorah seeds grow and bloom rapidly after a heavy rain for more than ten months in the ground. After the heat wave returns, the flowers wither, and the withered flower balls are blown by the wind like a globe orchid. In the distance, after the seeds hit the ground, they germinate at the risk of being scorched, and then wait for the rainstorm? Doesn’t it mean that the seeds will stay underground for more than ten months? It feels like bbc didn’t explain it clearly;
* Some seeds are like badminton and fall to the ground in a spiral;
* There is a maple tree, each football-sized seed pod has hundreds of seeds, which are very thin and light, and the breeze can send it far away;
* Cactus blooms at night and pollinates by bats. Its seeds are sweet and delicious, which attracts birds. The fallen seeds and pulp are first removed by ants, and then turtles come to eat, so the seeds are spread to various places where they are easy to germinate, such as tortoises resting. A cactus with a height of 5cm-_-10m is estimated to be 100 years old even if it grows in the shade in 10 years;
* The weird shape of the dracaena can make the occasional morning mist flow. Go to the center of the tree and then slip to the roots. Even the water left on the sand will penetrate deep into the sand because of the huge shade;
* The barrel-shaped roots of the desert rose can hold water all year round;
* The mangroves are not afraid of salty tides , The nodules on the roots can absorb oxygen in the air. When submerged by sea water, the pores can filter 99% of the salt, and the remaining salt is transferred to the leaves, causing yellowing and falling off;
* Before winter, the nutrients from the leaves are transported back to the trunk to form sugary antifreeze.

10. Primates
* In a group of long-temple baboons, male baboons will severely punish disobedient female baboons who run around.
* In winter, only the highest-level female monkeys and children can go to the hot springs. The male monkeys will guard the hot spring filter bathing members, and the lower-level monkeys can only squat in the cold wind miserably. The temperature of the hot spring and the temperature can differ by 60 degrees: (
* Silverback gorilla eats 30 kilograms of food a day, and sometimes eats termite snacks. The sound of male orangutans beating their breasts can be transmitted one kilometer away.
* Tarsier is the only carnivorous For 45 million years, they haven’t changed much. Tarsier’s eyeballs are too big, so they can’t turn around in the eye sockets. They can only turn their heads. They are the only carnivorous primates.
* Female lemurs only have estrus. At 24 hours, the male monkeys compete fiercely. Some male monkeys took advantage of other male monkeys' fighting and smeared the perfume secreted by the wrist glands on the tail, and then abducted the female monkey in heat to the cactus to mate.
* Orangutan It takes 9 years to educate the next generation, such as foraging for 200+ plants, which branches can bear their own weight, which insect nests can find food to eat, and if they build a nest, so a 42-year-old female orangutan still takes her first Three
babies ... * Baboons that use tides to forage can find shark eggs every two weeks, and can eat mussle every day.
* Capuchin monkeys don’t have strong teeth to gnaw off the clam shell, so they took the clam and slammed into the tree. Smash it up, let the mussel take care of the muscle fatigue of the clam shell tightly, and then break the food.
