Chameleon’s Tongue Catches Prey in Slow-motion | Love Nature

The Yemen Chameleon mimics the movements of a leaf, until it can get close enough to a butterfly, and then uncorks its super long, sticky tongue to catch its prey. The ogre-faced spider spins a web-net and throws it at its victims. The archerfish uses a sniper-like accuracy with its water stream to knock its prey out of the trees. A gaboon viper blends in with the dead leaves around it, until an unsuspecting rat steps into its territory. The viper then uses its massive fangs to bite the rat, and waits until the poor rodent collapses due to the toxins flowing through its body, at which point the viper tracks its meal down and swallows it whole. The assassin bug works much the same, injecting its prey with venom, and then turning it to goo, making for the perfect bug smoothie via the process of external digestion.
