* Hummingbirds. Tiny little balls of feathers and hyperactivity that live off sugar water and look like digital camera ads. They're also [[AttackAttackAttack stupidly aggressive]], and will chase birds ten times their size out of their territory. There's a reason why the Aztecs believed hummingbirds to be ''the reincarnations of their own warriors'' and also associated them with their god of war Huitzilopochtli (whose name means something among the lines of 'Hummingbird's south/left'.

Obligate carnivorism is where an organism requires protein from animal flesh to survive. Carnivorism is where an organism's "natural" diet consists of animal flesh.


** Some articles have described cats as not being truly domesticated. This makes sense. If your cat leaves home, he or she has a great chance of being able to survive in the wild hunting things like a furry little Rambo. Your chihuahua, not so much. [[note]]Cats are domesticated, but not nearly on the same level of dogs. Unlike with dogs and livestock animals, humans never actually made an active effort to domesticate cats. When agriculture was developed, humans were able to store food for long periods of times. This attracted rodents like mice and rats. The cats learned that where there were humans, there were mice, so cats came by to eat and only tolerated the humans. Humans only tolerated the cats because cats killed rodents that otherwise would've wiped out the food supply. Also cats, being obligate carnivores, were not interested in the food stores that were attracting the rodents.[[/note]]

* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycaon_pictus Painted wolves]] base their pack hierarchies around submission, resulting in puppy-like antics from just about the entire pack. What makes them noteworthy separate from other canines? ''90%'' of their hunts end in kills - even lions only manage a measly 30%. And consider ''how'' they kill their victims. Does the term ''"[[CruelAndUnusualDeath live disembowlment]]"'' mean anything to you? BewareTheNiceOnes.

* The tufted titmouse is a funny little bird with a funny little name. It will also fearlessly steal the hair off passing animals (dogs, cats, humans...) and use it to line its nests.

* This list is not complete without the late, great Naim Süleymanoğglu. A tiny, smiling, chatty guy ''who could probably lift you over his head without breaking a sweat!'' A man who had won three(!) consecutive gold medal in the Olympics in the two lightest weight categories, in 1988, 1992, and 1996. His victory over Valerios Leonidis in 1996 has been called the "The Greatest Weightlifting Competition In History." Although Süleymanoğglu was Turkish (born Bulgarian, but definitely Turkish) and Leonidis was Greek, they had healthy respect for each other that almost toppled into FriendlyRival territory. Süleymanoğglu was renowned for going to chat to fellow competitors during competitions, as, in his own words "It doesn't matter winning, if my fellow lifters don't perform due to nerves. I like an equal competition."
