The law of the jungle in nature is the law of the jungle, and under the cruel and ruthless competition of reality, each animal will evolve its own unique survival skills and superb ability to avoid predators.
Possum possums pretending to be dead
For example, in the face of danger, some animals will fly into the sky, some animals will dive into the water, some animals will pretend to be dead, and some animals will use the special functions of the body to protect themselves...
However, even the most powerful animals have their weaknesses or weaknesses, and even rely on survival "weapons", but in turn they are the culprits who kill themselves, and they die very bitterly, both sad and funny.

Relying on its own advantages to avoid countless enemies, I did not expect that the proud "killer skill" had become its own fatal shackles.
Killed by their own big appetite
In the sea, there is a shark that is listed with great white sharks and tiger sharks as the most aggressive, fierce and most frequent sharks that attack humans, which is the white shark, also known as the "bull shark".
The name of the bull shark is admired, and it is known as one of the most feared sharks in the shark family, with titles such as "mysterious marine killer" and "shipwreck butcher".
The bull shark has been living in the ocean about 400 million years ago, and is the only shark that can live in fresh and salt water, with a strong appearance like a cow, not very good vision, but an unusually sensitive sense of smell, able to sniff out a drop of blood diluted in 100,000 liters of water, and use it to track prey.
The most terrifying thing about the bull shark is that it has a large mouth, which is cracked and arc-shaped, full of sharp teeth, bites fast, eats more, and never picky eaters, often running to the mouth of the river to hunt for hippos, rhinos, crocodiles, etc., even other sharks including great white sharks.
Fearless bull sharks, which have few natural predators in the ocean, have an oversized appetite that is described as a "cold storage" where food can be stored in the stomach for 10 days, or even a month. Generally speaking, a full meal of bull sharks can not eat for about 10 days, but the gluttonous bull sharks will not be satisfied with the status quo, and will go out to forage every three to five.
It is reasonable to say that bull sharks with huge appetites are more likely to starve to death due to lack of food, but scientists have found that some bull sharks are not starving to death, but are propped to death.
Someone found a dead bull shark on the river in Brisbane, Australia, originally thought to be starved to death, but dissected the shark's stomach but found a large pile of undigested food. It turned out that the gluttonous bull shark was supported alive by its own big appetite.
Killed by your own horns
There is a kind of wild sheep, belonging to the even-hoofed cattle family, the head is large, because of its thick horns coiled and curved, named Pan sheep, also known as "big horned sheep"; and because its head is also very large, people also call it "big-headed bent sheep".
The horns of the pan sheep can reach a maximum of 190 cm, and the weight of an adult male sheep alone is 25-40 kg.
The strange and rare horns are surprising, and people in some places will offer dead horns as artifacts to pray for peace.
Pan sheep is the world's largest sheep, strong body, agile action, can run and jump freely between cliffs and cliffs, generally live in higher altitude areas, mainly group life, in China's Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Pan sheep are widely distributed.
The sheep are aggressive by nature, especially in the mating period, in order to compete for a mate, two male sheep fighting desperately on the edge of the cliff is not unusual, the head is overhead, the horns meet the horns, and the huge roar can be heard across a mountain.
The males who eventually dominate enjoy all the adult females in the flock, while the other males who have lost can only wander around until the end of the mating period, and all the males will "get back together".
The horns of the pan sheep can fight against predators and seize territory, however, the infinite growth of the horns will cause trouble for themselves. The horns of the pan sheep initially grow spiral from the top of the head to the bottom, the base of the horns is thick, the horns are sharp and sharp, and finally they curl upwards.
Male pan sheep are particularly dangerous, if the horns are long enough and the angle is clever enough, the sharp horn tips will pierce the head or throat of the pan sheep. Most of the pan sheep with a life span of about 15 years will be poked to death by their horns at the age of seven or eight years old; and the pan sheep who are lucky enough to escape this fate will also be too obstructive because of the huge horns, resulting in inability to eat and being starved to death.
Punctured by his own teeth
There is a kind of pig, the legs are quite slender, the appearance of the pig but has a pair of strange fangs, people think it is the offspring of the hybrid of pigs and deer, so they took the name "deer dolphin".
Deer dolphins live in dense rainforests, and their long fangs are what sets the male deer dolphin apart, and the female deer dolphin and her children do not have this strange appearance.
For young male deer dolphins, tusks are a very painful thing, four long and sharp fangs have to pass through the upper jawbone and the skin of the face to grow out, and then bend obliquely towards the eyes.
However, the strangely curved fangs are a very deterrent "weapon" of the male deer dolphin, which makes many small carnivores feel frightened, and the fangs are extremely sharp, like a sharp dagger, and it can easily win by strangling the throat of the opponent when fighting for predation.
Fangs are also an important weapon for male deer dolphins to compete for their mates, and in order to compete for the object of their choice, a fierce struggle will be waged between male deer and dolphins. The upper fangs are not sharp, just a decorative role, the lower fangs are the killer of the male deer dolphin, in the courtship, the male deer dolphin mainly uses the lower fangs to fight.
If the fangs are beautiful and complete, it is easier to win the favor of the doe dolphin, if the other party damages the lower fangs, the mating right can only be surrendered.
However, the strangely curved fangs are like a "double-edged sword" for the male deer dolphin, which is a powerful weapon and may also kill itself.
If the fangs of the male deer dolphin grow at the right angle to their own brain shell, the sharp fangs will pass through the brain shell and be poked alive, which is very sad to watch.

Each creature will evolve an advantage that favors the survival of the race, but there will also be certain evolutionary flaws. Some seemingly important weapons will eventually become "burdensome" and in turn harm themselves.
There are thousands of worlds, there are no wonders. In addition to the above three animals, there are other animals in nature who have died of "their own stunts", such as electric eels killed by their own anger, and beavers who have been killed by trees that they have bitten off.

The survival of the fittest and the creatures that can be left behind are the ultimate choices of nature. In fact, the probability of being accidentally killed by the animals is small, and most of them still fail to escape the hunting of competitors or natural enemies.
