01SKUNKS As they are slow at running, skunks get rid of their predators by rancid spray. The liquid is a mixture of sulphuric chemicals and can travel about 3m away. This strong odour has an affect / effect on other creatures but not on other skunks. If this is sprayed in the eyes, the affects / effects include: sneezing, vomiting, and anaemia in rare cases.
02BOMBARDIER BEETLES They are most notable for their defence mechanism. The affect / effect of any disturbance is that a noxious chemical spray is released from the tip of their abdomen. Sometimes, the chemicals from the liquid mix with special enzymes to raise the temperature to 100 0 C. The chemicals of the liquid also contain hydrogen peroxide and can adversely affect / effect attackinginsects and it’ s also painful for humans.
03SOUTHERN TAMANDUAS Despite its cuteness, the southern tamandua [ tuh-MANdoo-uh ] is pretty nasty. Its odour is almost 4 to 7 times stronger than that of the skunks. They only release the foul smell when in danger. You can imagine how this smell would have an affect / effect on predators! Their strong arms and sharp, long claws also have a discouraging affect / effect on their enemies.
04SPOTTED HYENAS They produce a paste called“ hyena butter”( don’ t even think of putting this butter on your toast!) which they rub against plants, leaving behind smears. This practice does not affect / effect the plants, but does have an affect / effecton other hyenas.
