# Insectivore Animals (Page 2 of 2)

> Hunting insects, spiders, and grubs with lightning tongues, sharp beaks, or sensitive hearing.

**33 species in this collection.**

- [Satanic Leaf-Tailed Gecko](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/satanic-leaf-tailed-gecko/) (*Uroplatus phantasticus*)
  - **Superpower**: Camouflage matched to a dead leaf, right down to the apparent decay, missing chunks, and lichen-like patches.
  - **Musical Match**: Bauhaus (Gothic Rock & Post-Punk)
- [Short-Beaked Echidna](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/echidna/) (*Tachyglossus aculeatus*)
  - **Superpower**: An electric sense in the snout, the first known in a land animal, plus 693 scent-receptor genes to the platypus's 299, which may help it search for the odours of underground prey.
  - **Musical Match**: The Drones (Art Punk & Experimental Post-Punk)
- [Siamese Fighting Fish](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/siamese-fighting-fish/) (*Betta splendens*)
  - **Superpower**: Breathes air through a labyrinth organ above its gills
  - **Musical Match**: Imogen Heap (Art Pop & Baroque Pop)
- [Sloth Bear](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/sloth-bear/) (*Melursus ursinus*)
  - **Superpower**: Vacuum-cleaner feeding: a gap where its top two front teeth should be lets it suck up termites, it can close its nostrils while it feeds, and the slurping can be heard up to 100 meters away.
  - **Musical Match**: Carpenter Brut (80s Retrowave & Synthwave)
- [Strawberry Poison-Dart Frog](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/strawberry-poison-dart-frog/) (*Oophaga pumilio*)

  - **Musical Match**: Sleigh Bells (Art Punk & Experimental Post-Punk)
- [Sunda Pangolin](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/sunda-pangolin/) (*Manis javanica*)
  - **Superpower**: Overlapping, sharp-tipped scales, and a well-developed neuromuscular system that curls it into a ball over its scaleless belly
  - **Musical Match**: 1000mods (Heavy Psych & Desert Rock)
- [Superb Lyrebird](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/superb-lyrebird/) (*Menura novaehollandiae*)
  - **Superpower**: A song built roughly 80% from mimicry, including an acoustic illusion of a mixed-species alarm flock convincing enough that real birds treat it as genuine.
  - **Musical Match**: Aphex Twin (IDM & Glitch Ambient Synthesis)
- [Texas Horned Lizard](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/texas-horned-lizard/) (*Phrynosoma cornutum*)
  - **Superpower**: Blood-squirting eye defense and skin channels that steer water toward its snout
  - **Musical Match**: Calexico (Desert Americana & Cinematic Rock)
- [Thorny Devil](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/thorny-devil/) (*Moloch horridus*)
  - **Superpower**: Grooves between its scales collect water and carry it by capillary action, even against gravity, to the corners of its mouth.
  - **Musical Match**: King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard (Psychedelic Rock & Neo-Psych)
