Among animals

The short-tailed cricket is known to eat its own wings.[16] There is evidence of certain animals digesting their own nervous tissue when they transition to a new phase of life. The sea squirt (with a tadpole-like shape) contains a ganglion "brain" in its head, which it digests after attaching itself to a rock and becoming stationary, forming an anemone-like organism. This has been used as evidence that the purpose of brain and nervous tissue is primarily to produce movement. Self-cannibalism behavior has been documented in North American rat snakes .. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_snake : one captive snake attempted to consume itself twice, dying in the second attempt. Another wild rat snake was found having swallowed about two-thirds of its body.[17]

[Think about that. "About two thirds..." Some 70% of registered Republicans believe trump's stolen election 2020 lie. Gobble gobble.]
