Every creature has its own way of survival, and the way of survival of human beings is wisdom, and we learned to make tools and use tools millions of years ago.
So, what special way do nature's creatures have to survive?
This is the coconut crab, which is also the largest terrestrial arthropod, and the heaviest coconut crab can even reach 6 kg.
But what you may not expect is that they are also expert tree climbers, and when they climb the tree, they will cut the coconut with strong pliers, and then knock it open with a double claw, and eat the coconut meat directly inside.
It is also the only animal on earth besides humans that can open coconuts.
Scientists have calculated that the strength of coconut crab claws is as high as more than 3300 Newtons, which is equivalent to more than 330 kilograms. The bite force of people is generally less than 50 kilograms, and if it is clipped, it must be very sour.
They are omnivorous creatures, almost all organic matter it will eat, and at some times, even smaller than their own kind, so they are also called "robber crabs".
This is a magical frog, the strong-haired frog. Because they grow claws as sharp as Wolverine, they are also known as "Wolverine Frogs".
In the event of danger, they will break their bones, and sharp claws will be extended at the breaks to protect themselves.
What you don't expect is that during the breeding season, male strong-haired frogs will grow a large number of hair-like structures on their trunks and thighs, which is also the origin of their name. These structures can increase the oxygen absorption of its epidermis, like an external cheek.
They are mainly distributed in Central Africa, and at least 11 species of frogs in the family Frogs that live in Central Africa have such claw structures, as if this special physiological weapon is unique to Central African organisms.
This is squid, their flesh can be eaten, ink can be processed, ink sac is also a kind of medicinal material, even the internal organs are raw materials for tanning, it can be said that the whole body is a treasure.
Squids have a very developed muscular system and are the swimming champions of marine life, they do not rely on the swing of the fins like other creatures, but by the small mouth in the center of the tentacles to spray seawater, just like the reaction force used in the rocket launch, they launch themselves.
They can even rely on this ability to fly continuously for 50 meters in the air.
The squid's maximum speed can reach 150 kilometers per hour, and even the swimmers who can reach a speed of 110 kilometers per hour must bow down in front of the squid.
But in addition to speed, squids also have a powerful life-saving skill, that is, their ink.
When in danger, they will quickly spew out a large amount of black ink, taking advantage of the sea water when it is dirty, and these inks are poisonous, the ink will paralyze the opponent, buying more time for the squid to escape.
But these inks are difficult to store, so they will not use "big moves" easily until they have to.
Moreover, there is also a very small firefly squid, although they are small, but they have 3 strange light emitters on them, which can illuminate 30 centimeters away, and they use these beams to intimidate the enemy.
This is a water-jet fish, don't underestimate this small fish, they have an attack power that does not match the appearance, and they are very powerful "snipers".
Water-jet fish are generally only about 20 centimeters, but they can spray water to a height of 1.5 meters.
They will stay quietly under the surface of the water, waiting for insects or all kinds of small shrimp and fish, and once they get close, the water spray fish will use their specially modified tongues to spray water out to stun their prey.
Their eyesight is very good, of course, which is a necessary skill for every sniper. But they also move dexterously and quickly, never dragging mud and water.
But even the strongest "snipers" will have moments of missing hand, they will patiently wait for a second chance to re-aim, and even jump out of the water if necessary, directly bite the prey with their mouths.
If you find this fish at the water's edge, be careful, because their water column can not only stun prey, but also injure people's eyes.
This is the sea dragon, which has a unique camouflage ability to disguise itself as seaweed and float in the sea.
Sea dragons are related to seahorses, they reproduce in the same way, the entire pregnancy process is completed by the male, and the female sea dragon will lay eggs on the tail of the male.
Since the hatching, the little sea dragon must embark on the road of growth by itself, because the father of the sea dragon is only responsible for incubation, not for care.
They have no fins, cannot swim on their own, and can only float in the sea, most sea dragons will disguise themselves as seaweed, and then hide themselves in seaweed, so that they can both hide and use seaweed as food.
Sea dragons not only eat seaweed, but also feed on very small plankton, but they have no teeth and can only "shrive" the whole food into their mouths.
Well, that's it for this issue.
After reading these creatures with "special functions", what do you think?
