Hippos. They hate almost everything, but sometimes some of them hate each other more.
Some spiders tend to eat their partners, just because they're murderous, not hungry.
Different types of snakes tend to be quite racist and can't stand one another.
Koalas. They can be very aggressive about their leaves and will try to kick each other off trees.
Some sharks just don't give a shit on what they bite. Maybe because they're mostly blind.
Kangaroos will drown you, your kids, your pets and other kangaroos. Because fuck this, fuck that and fuck you. Kangaroos are psychos. Don't mess with them.
PS: Some of these examples might have specific circumstances or are plainly wrong. It happens.
Not sure how you missed Chimpanzees. They will castrate each other bare handed if a feud develops, or out right murder an alpha that gives up primacy due to age or injury. Psychopaths of the animal kingdom.
I'm not the chimp type. As such, I am lacking.
Add dolphins to the list too. Not only killing for fun but also raping and getting high off other species.
That reminds me of Orcas, which if I remember correctly actually hunt whales primarily for sport rather than food
The snake thing is from Rick and Morty, I'm pretty sure
It might be. After enough time passes, i forget where the memory comes from and only tidbits of information remain.
