Aren't animals excluding humans intictively know what's dangerous to eat and get close to?

@kritiper Wait till it comes back from editing.

They do not.

@flo PM me or let me know when I can answer!

@MrGrimm888 Bu the butterflies, and birds that go all the way to another continent like clock work for their survial, and the other gizzilion other example that are incredible about animals?

@kritiper Please go ahead and answer it, or you can flag it too before that. I appreciate the interest. But I was going to edit the typo and add something about mice biting humans, (babies) I was going to add if that’s a myth, etc.

Electrical current can only kill an animal if the current flows through the animal (it’s brain or heart) to ground. So if the squirrel is on a hot wire, it cannot get killed. Now if the squirrel gets rained on and gets wet, and comes in contact, say, with it’s nose on the hot wire and it’s tail touching the ground wire, the squirrel may get killed. But the current may only flow through the animal’s fur and not kill it. I saw such a squirrel and it’s head was messed up bad, infected and all black, and it’s tail was burnt ½ way off and the burnt part was split in two. The squirrel survived, the dead parts of it’s tail fell off and it had a very noticeable hole in one ear.
But some animals will eat stuff that will kill them, such as poisoned meat. Cows and horses may eat loco weed, etc. A dog may chew up and swallow a rag that will plug it’s guts and kill it.
Animals, like bees, wasps, spiders, may bite when being sat on or squished, as a self defense act.
No body is perfect, and neither are animals.

Yes. Animals do incredible things. They also get found dead, because of something they ate all the time…

Great posts, thanks.
