* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'': [[FatIdiot Druggie]] [[spoiler:leaves a metal axe hanging on the wall, [[OffWithHisHead which gets him killed]]]]. He also fails to realize that swearing off food will result in him starving to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'': Mowgli, especially during his second encounter with Kaa, where ''knowing'' that Kaa wants to eat him, still thinks that Kaa wants to help him, and looks into his eyes long enough to be hypnotized. If Shere Khan hadn't shown up, Mowgli would have been dead.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Trolls}}'': Quite honestly, most of the Trolls qualify -- after escaping from the Bergens in the opening prologue, they establish a new home in the forest, but don't bother with ANY defenses or warnings against any possible future discovery by the Bergens. Similarly, Branch tells Princess Poppy that her loud singing and boisterous party celebrations might attract the Bergens, but she blithely dismisses his warnings with terrible consequences.

* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'': [[FatIdiot Druggie]] [[spoiler:leaves a metal axe hanging on the wall, [[OffWithHisHead which naturally gets him killed]]]]. He also fails to realize that swearing off food will result in him starving to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* A pack of ''[[RaptorAttack Velociraptors]]'' in ''Animation/SpecklesTheTarbosaurus''. After catching up to their prey slowly descending into the [[QuicksandSucks quicksand]] it had gotten itself stuck into moments earlier, the lead raptor leaps onto the back of their victim to finish the job of killing it - and he gets stuck in the quicksand himself. The rest of the pack hesitates for barely five seconds before taking off as we cut to the pack leader drowning in the swamp.

* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'': Druggie [[spoiler:leaves a metal axe hanging on his wall, which naturally gets him [[OffWithHisHead decapitated]]]]. He also fails to realize that swearing off food will result in him starving to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'': Druggie [[spoiler:leaves a metal axe hanging on his wall, which gets him [[OffWithHisHead decapitated]]]]. He also fails to realize that swearing off food will result in him starving to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'': Druggie somehow didn't see the dangers of [[spoiler:leaving a metal axe on top of the wall. This gets him decapitated.]] He also fails to realize that swearing off foods will cause him to starve to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* A clownfish in ''Animation/Padak'' has the ''brilliant'' idea to wake up the titular Padak (a hungry mackerel who is bigger than the clownfish) and yell at her to get out of the clownfish tank she’s been placed in.

* Two intances of this occur in ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'': The first is when Belle's father, Maurice and his horse (Phillippe) arrive at a crossroads on their way to the fair. Phillipe clearly tries to pull Maurice towards the brighter, more cheerful path on the left, while Marucie adamantly chooses the foogy, eerily lit path on the right. The second is when Belle goes in the West Wing, despite the fact that the Beast (who, by the way, [[HairTriggerTemper has serious temper issues]]) ''explicitly told her not to go there''. Zero points for guessing [[GetOut what happened after that]].

* ''WesternAnimation/PussInBootsTheLastWish'': The DeathMontage shows that Puss used up most of his nine lives idiotically, such as stopping in the middle of a Running of the Bulls event to flirt with a local señorita and getting trampled, drunkenly leaping off a clock tower trying to land on his feet, lifting a ludicrously heavy dumbbell without a spotter, or trying to shoot himself out of a cannon. This is why [[spoiler:[[TheGrimReaper Death himself]] comes after Puss; watching him waste his lives on such frivolously foolhardy stunts, while still proclaiming himself immortal, [[EnragedByIdiocy enraged]] [[DoNotTauntCthulhu Death so much]] that he decided to come after Puss to personally end his last life]].

* The Druggie from ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'' somehow didn't see the dangers of [[spoiler:leaving a metal axe on top of the wall. This gets him decapitated.]] He also fails to realize that swearing off foods will cause him to starve to death. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Frank:

* Also when he first encounters Shere Khan he stands up to him and refuses to run away even when Shere Khan gives him a head start and instead grabs a small stick to fight back. When Shere Khan catches on to what he intends to do, he speeds up his counting and charges at Mowgli, even causing him to drop the stick. And he would have killed Mowgli if Baloo hadn't shown up in time.
