(#1) Sea Turtles
Posted by Redditor /u/Jmainia_Animations:
If you shine a flashlight/smartphone on a newborn sea turtle for too long (which could be only minutes), it will start crawling around in circles. Known as the "Ring of Death", it means that the turtle's eyesight has been permanently damaged due to mistaking your lights for the moon that guides it to the sea. By doing this, you have doomed the sea turtle to death right after birth.

(#2) Tasmanian devils
- Book
Posted by Redditor /u/downvote_city_b**ch:
A Tasmanian Devil gives birth to dozens of babies, however, the mother only has four nipples. So it's a race for those babies to reach one of them. The ones who don't make it are then eaten by the mother.

(#3) Sloth
- Animal
Posted by Redditor /u/Itsafinelife:
If a baby sloth falls off it's mother's back and down to the forest floor, more often than not the mom can't spare the energy to go down and get it. This does not end well for the baby sloth.

(#4) Whales
Posted by Redditor /u/TheArtisticGoblin:
Some whales, when old, no longer have enough strength to swim for as long, so if they swim too deep, they might not have enough strength to swim back up to get air so they end up drowning.

A moose will kill you.
Like. Leave it alone. It will gore you. It will kick you. It will headbutt you until you're just a shredded corpse hanging from it's antlers. It will kill you in your car. It will kill you in a forest. It will kill you in a swamp. You can't just run one over with your car if it's on the road. You can't run away once it's spotted you.
They are not nice, calm or gentle creatures. They are massive, terrifying beasts. Leave them alone.

(#14) Angler Fish
Posted by Redditor /u/Fatisbac:
When Angler Fish copulate, the male will bite the female and permanently attach itself to her. During pregnancy the female will drain the male of all it has until its body has fully dystrophied into nothing but a pair of gonads for the female to continue on reproducing from the males sperm. And they say men are the only ones who objectify women for their bodies.

(#16) Deer
- Animal
Posted by Redditor /u/GreebleSnort:
Deer can and will kill you. Do not corner them, do not get between them and their babies, and for the love of Gygax DO NOT try to pet them! Yes, even the doe. Yes, even the small one. Yeah, I know they're herbivores, so are rhinos. Yeah, I know they look delicate, they're really not. Their hooves are sharp as hell and their legs are STRONG. Bambi will f**k you up.

(#19) Koala
- Animal
Posted by Redditor /u/remotectrl:
Koalas are terrible. I'd like to share with you some of my koala knowledge!
• It takes a koala four days to digest a meal: Fact. The word "koala" comes from the aboriginal language meaning "no drink" indicating the first of the three rules for gremlins.
• Koalas sing to defend their territories and win mates, like blue birds or Michael Buble.
• Koalas are not bears. Koalas are Hellspawn, and like everything else in Australia they know only hate. More beastly than Hank McCoy, these blue-grey creatures have razor sharp claws and a voice that sounds like a tiger dry heaving.
• I'm not sure where the bear comparison comes from; they are less Smokey and more Fozzie bear with that stupid Muppet nose. Real bears eat delicious things like salmon, berries, honey, and ants; the bare necessities of life. Koalas only eat eucalyptus leaves, which are an ingredient in cough syrup. It was believed it made them drunk and pass out, but robotripping is just how koalas roll. Eucalyptus is not very nutritious so they must spend five hours a day eating, eighteen hours a day sleeping, which leaves just one hour to get their mack on.
• Like many other marsupials, koalas are social creatures and like many other drug addicts they are mostly antisocial creatures.
• Koalas have a scent gland on their chest they use to mark their territory, so they aggressively hug trees to leave their stank.
• Koala have uncannily human-like fingerprints they use to grip things. They also have large claws to help grip even harder. They also have two thumbs. You do not want to be gripped by a koala.
• Koalas are afraid of paper bags. Researchers use a pole-mounted paper bag to coax koalas out of trees.
• Half of koala pregnancies are sired not by resident alpha males like Buster and Hendrix, but by koala charlatans like Captain Bogart who roam the suburbs, looking for ladies and a fix. Only the toughest of koalas can survive on the streets with their devil-may-care attitude and shapely ears.
• At the culmination of the violent tantrum which is koala coitus, the male leaves a seminal plug which blocks the female's multiple vaginas from being entered by the hemipenis of another koala.
• Koalas are a protected species so its illegal to touch or pick one up without a permit. This is for the protection of the humans, not the koala.
• Also koalas get sick. During this documentary I saw a koala named James got Chlamydia and lost his territory to Hendrix, who then got Chlamydia and was taken to an animal hospital before it got to full-on wet bottom. Continuing the tradition of cuddle-fying these monsters, "wet bottom" is what they call a urinary infection that stains their fur. Basically an STD leads to them pissing all over themselves. Finding out that koalas have Chlamydia is like finding out that ponies get herpes or that kittens have AIDS. Both of those things are true by the way.
• But the most common cause of death for koalas is reckless drivers.
