ANIMALS THAT CAN LIVE FOR BIT LONGER EVEN AFTER YOU KILL THEM

1. SNAKES
Snakes can still kill you with their head chopped off, the snake’s head has its fangs and deadly poison sacs still have the ability to bite you and deliver deadly venom even if it’s no longer attached to the rest of its body.

2. CHICKEN
Chickens can run around with their heads cut off. The chicken’s central nervous system is very different from humans some basic bodily functions are controlled not by the brain itself but by certain parts of the brainstem.

3. TURTLE
The hearts of fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals alike have their own pacemaker cells that take over when the signals from the brainstem are not coming through. It makes sure that the heart still functions for a while even when the brain does not.

4. FROGS
Frogs continue to move around even when their brain is dead. If you leave the frog’s head intact but take out its brain, a headed but brainless frog actually behaves very similarly to a frog with its green matter perfectly intact.

5. ALLIGATORS
Alligators, when alive send shivers down the spine. However, after their death, the case still remains the same. When the temperatures are cold, the alligators appear to be dead. But, they are actually breathing through a very unique trick known as brumation.

6. OCEAN QUAHOG
It's part of a delicacy in most of the counties they live. It has lived up to 507 years. It's cell membrane has resisted to oxidated stress and does not deteriorate atall.

7. SCORPION
Scorpion can slow down their metabolism to the point of surviving on a single insect throughout a particular period of time. They are able to adapt in any environment.


8. OCTOPUS
An octopus after being chopped up continues to move, the reason octopuses arms maintain mobility even after being chopped off is quite fascinating it’s because their central nervous system is quite unique.
