## Species Aligned With Hardcore Punk & Post-Hardcore

- [Beadlet Anemone](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/beadlet-anemone/) (*Actinia equina*)
  - **Musical Match**: Refused, "New Noise"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Out of the water a beadlet anemone pulls in and sits as a little red blob, and when its tentacles touch a neighbor's it stings. New Noise works the same switch: the band drops out to silence, then slams back in.
  - **Superpower**: A sting from its blue acrorhagi leads a neighbor to crawl away or drop off the rock
- [Bombardier Beetle](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/bombardier-beetle/) (*Brachinus crepitans*)
  - **Musical Match**: Fugazi, "Waiting Room"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Chemical pressure builds in a sealed reaction chamber until it fires in rapid, explosive pulses, the same stop-start intensity as hardcore punk.
  - **Superpower**: Explosive Chemical Spray Up To 100°C, Fired in Rapid Pulses
- [Bull Shark](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/bull-shark/) (*Carcharhinus leucas*)
  - **Musical Match**: IDLES, "I'm Scum"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Brutal post-punk riffs, aggressive blunt-force rhythm, and uncompromising visceral bite.
  - **Superpower**: Blood chemistry that shifts with the water: bull sharks caught in freshwater carried about half the blood urea of those caught at sea.
- [Common Ostrich](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/common-ostrich/) (*Struthio camelus*)
  - **Musical Match**: Otoboke Beaver, "Love is Short"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Breakneck punk played at a sprint, for a bird that runs in short bursts of up to 70 kilometers per hour, holds a steady 50, and covers 3 to 5 meters in a single stride.
  - **Superpower**: Sprints in short bursts of up to 43 mph (70 km/h) and holds a steady 31 mph (50 km/h), on the only two-toed feet of any bird
- [Giant Anteater](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/giant-anteater/) (*Myrmecophaga tridactyla*)
  - **Musical Match**: Minor Threat, "Straight Edge"
  - **Biological Rationale**: A giant anteater is not immune to ant bites, so it feeds at a colony for a minute or so before moving on. Hardcore punk runs on the same short, fast bursts, and "Straight Edge" is over almost as soon as it starts.
  - **Superpower**: A 2-foot tongue that flicks in and out up to 150 times per minute
- [Wolverine](https://animaltracks.wiki/animals/wolverine/) (*Gulo gulo*)
  - **Musical Match**: Turnstile, "BLACKOUT"
  - **Biological Rationale**: Explosive, relentless hardcore for a mustelid built on stamina: it moves at a loping gallop, sometimes covering 10 to 15 kilometres without a rest.
  - **Superpower**: Durophagous (bone-crushing) teeth, the stiffest and most crush-resistant jaw-joint bone of 40 carnivores tested, and a powerful jaw and large neck muscles that let it crush and use bones and frozen flesh.
