The horned toad can SHOOT BLOOD out of its eyes.

The horned toad can SHOOT BLOOD out of its eyes.
To confuse predators, it squirts blood from its eye ducts with a range of up to 3 feet. The blood contains a chemical that is noxious to predators like wolves and coyotes.
Horned Toads can also inflate their bodies to almost twice their size, like the Puffer Fish.
