The most bizarre, cruel method imaginable is used by the mantis shrimp to murder its prey.
The mantis shrimp uses its two tentacles, which have the same velocity as a rifle gunshot, and dismember other shellfish by boiling the water around them to produce a shockwave that can kill animals. To put that into perspective, a human could have thrown a rock into space if they had used the same force in their arms! Additionally, the intensity of their shell is so great that it served as a model for true human body armour.
