Dog… I just want to be happy.
Quokka.
Eternal Happiness.
Ill throw wombat into the mix because I want to flip trucks dig tunnels and shit cubes.
Wombat. The power to take square shits.
A housefly so my lifespan is 2 days
Good news,
Plenty of animal bites can give you the same or even a better experience!
Better in what way 🤨
7 minute abs.
Bitten by a radioactive housecat, I gain the ability to sleep deeply and comfortably in a position that by all rights looks like it should be destroying my spine
Like I’ll take whatever else you wanna throw on top, night vision or claws or something, but I only really need that first thing
I’d get bitten by a gnat, and hope for mind control.
Edit: Y’all, the rules doesn’t say there has to be a correlation between the animal and the super power. People out here wanting to get bitten by big dangerous animals smdh
I would go for a mosquito bite, and hope to recive teleportation. Though I do hope to keep my clothes when I teleport.
The mosquito had malaria. 😞
Cat. The power to flexibly laze on any surface, anywhere, anytime.
I’d love to be bitten by some mad scientist named Francis and become immortal. A reign of absolute terror would befall this world.

Dog. I could train myself to find stuff (drugs and money, for starters) with my excellent sense of smell.
Everyone seems to think the question says you get powers related to the animal that bites you, but it isn’t worded that way. I’d get bit by a kitten and have the power of telekinesis, which is really multiple powers. I could fly, create forcefields, create cold or heat by moving atoms, hell, I could create all kinds of things by manipulating atoms.
You have cheated my system. As punishment I will make sure no super power granting animal ever bites you. Muhahaha!
If we’re being pedantic, aren’t cat bites actually super dangerous because of infections and bacteria?
Everyone seems to think the question says you get powers related to the animal that bites you, but it isn’t worded that way.
You cheeky fucker. I like your thinking.
Why get bit by a cat? I’d picka mosquito. Been there, done that 1000 times already…
Tardigrade, I’d have extreme resistance to basically all climates and can be dried up and rehydrated back to life effectively allowing me to “travel” through time by waiting in death…so my shows are all finished lol.
I’d also make a great astronaut
Edit: words
There is a pickle rick joke to be made in there somewhere…
Or Discovery joke…
A chameleon so I can get the ability to camouflage. Well as long as I don’t move. Also I think I can grab the TV remote controller with my tongue. Or do insane tricks throwing food and catching it with my tongue. And well… maybe other nice things to find out with that tongue. 🔞
also, the eyes!
“Yes mom, I am paying attention to your story about who you met at the grocery store and definitely not just looking at my phone…”
How isn’t there one post mentioning Mantis shrimp for the vision and punching power. Or any gorilla for being vegan and jacked. What about a giraffe? You could taste a women’s urine to know if she’s ovulating. Are these not no the default answers?
Mantis Shrimp have worse colour vision than humans. They need all those receptors because their brains are too simple to combine colours like a human brain can. A human can see hundreds of shades of purple in between red and blue. A mantis shrimp can only see as many colours as it has receptors. It’s like seeing in 8 bit.
Can I subscribe to shrimp-facts? 🦐 ✌️
A mantis shrimp can punch hard enough that it vaporises the water in front of it into steam, which causes an explosion. It’s an effect called cavitation, and it can kill a prey animal that the shrimp didn’t even touch from the force of the explosion. Cavitation can also be an issue for sea vessels if the propeller and hull design creates too much turbulence, and this can damage vessels. If you’ve played Subnautica, cavitation is what happens when you run the Cyclops at full engine for too long.
Subnautica also has a deep sea vessel called a prawn. Prawns have claws on the first six legs, while shrimp only have claws on the first four. Australians love prawns, and do not call them shrimp. The famous line “shrimp on the barbie” was deliberately changed to make it easier for Americans to understand. Under normal circumstances an Australian would never talk about cooking shrimp, even if the animal on the barbie only had four claws.
Shrimp, prawns, and other marine crustaceans need a chemical called Calcium Carbonate, or CaCO3, to grow their shells. CaCO3 is a buffer chemical, which means that it can react with both hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions to form other chemicals. Buffer chemicals make a solution resistant to changes in pH. If you add an acid or base to a solution with a buffer, the pH will change very little, at least until the buffer runs out. Calcium Carbonate makes the ocean resistant to changes in pH, which is pretty handy because carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to produce carbonic acid. Human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide would have already turned the oceans to acid and killed off all the marine ecosystems if it weren’t for CaCO3. Unfortunately, the amount of CaCO3 in the ocean has been greatly reduced. This makes it harder for crustaceans like shrimp to grow their shells. This has lead to a decline in both population and size for marine crustaceans. If we keep emitting carbon dioxide, the calcium carbonate buffer will run out and the crustaceans will all die. Also, the ocean will turn to acid and all the fish will die too, whether it be due to the acid directly, or to food web collapse. This may herald the end of most life on earth.
was not prepared for the sad ending
aight we had good run
You can help protect the shrimp from extinction by getting rid of your car, going vegan, avoiding unnecessary flights, assassinating billionaires, and participating in armed revolution against the capitalist institutions.
Here’s a browser-based video game where you can see how humanity would do against climate change under your leadership, if we converted the world’s governments to socialism immediately: https://play.half.earth/
unfortunately I already do most things (the ones I can influence, anyway) but no way I can do more, even us as people vs countries that dont give a shit (china, india, etc).
China and India both have lower emissions per capita than rich western countries like America, England, and Australia. These high emission countries should only be complaining about China if they were already world leaders on emissions, which they are not. The top ten countries on per capita emissions are African. Afghanistan is 11. India is the leader of the larger countries.
