(#3) Leech
- Hirudinea
The life of a leech is already disgusting, but knowing the Giant Amazon Leech can grow to be 18 inches long and live 20 years makes them frightening as well. It feeds by sticking a six-inch long tube called a proboscis into your skin and draining your blood.

(#8) Electric eel
- Electrophorus electricus
Sitting on the deck of a boat doesn't guarantee your safety from some of the animals under the sea. It was recently proven electric eels can jump out of water and attack. Reports of eels jumping out of the Amazon River to shock horses were widely considered to be myths and legend, but this recent discovery changes everything.

(#10) Cockroach
- Blattaria
If you ever tried to kill a cockroach but only managed to get their head you have failed in your task. A headless cockroach can live for weeks. They won’t bleed out because of their low pressure, open circulatory system that can seal off the wound before too much blood escapes the body.
The disgusting beast will finally die from starvation after days of living headless in your house.

(#4) Boa constrictor imperator
It’s creepy enough that boa constrictors can unhinge their jaws and swallow large prey whole. What's worse is that this large, fearsome creature also knows the exact moment you die because it can feel your heartbeat. Which means playing dead isn't an option if the boa has already coiled around you.
Just go to sleep and it'll all be over soon.

(#12) Flying Snakes Are A Real Thing
Unfortunately, flying snakes exist. Mainly found in the jungles of South Asia, these snakes don't actually fly, but they can glide up to 330 feet. They launch themselves from tall branches, curving their bodies into shapes that trap air and help them float.
According to National Geographic, "Flying snakes are technically better gliders than their more popular mammalian equivalents, the flying squirrels."

(#11) Horned Lizards Shoot Blood From Their Eyes In Self-Defense
Short-horned lizards employ one of the weirdest defense mechanisms in all of the animal kingdom. If they feel threatened, they can shoot blood from their eyes via specialized ducts. The move is mainly meant to confuse predators, but their blood does contain a chemical to ward off wolves, coyotes, and dogs.
