The horned lizard has the weirdest self-defense on the planet. 🦎💀
How it works:
- When threatened, it cuts off blood flow to its head
- Pressure builds up in blood vessels around its eyes
- Then it SQUIRTS blood from its eye sockets
- The blood contains chemicals that taste terrible to predators
- Can sq**rt up to 5 feet (1.5 meters)
Predators like coyotes and dogs get a face full of nasty-tasting blood and never try again.
