Ok, you do that.
But I've always wondered about the lifestyle of Live-Ammo.

Fuzzles: It seems that they're flesh eating traps of fur which can ambush other critters easily (like bug eating plants do.). My point is: They're small, how do they digest and breath through very tiny lungs. And stuff. (as the mouth takes away half of the body. Huge eyes, ok, the hunting. Their nose seems to be blocked by hair, as the one in the intro (OSW) sniffed.

Chippunks: These can live like the normal squirrels. It seems. But I don't get their evolution; They have little arms, for digging themselves in? Huge eyes, for looking who they're talking to? Sharp teeth, for ripping off hunted meat?
It seems they'd be living quite good with fuzzles.

Bolamites: Normal spider life? Changing colours for the environment they life in? (like humans)

Stingbees: Normal bee life? Possibly.

Boombats: (Lol, I've just typed BooBBats.) Just like the fuzzles. The face takes half the body. Huge eyes, hunting (yeh...yeh...). Nose, smelling prey. And what's the point for them exploding? Hunting enemies? But the explosion kills the Boombat anyhow. And what makes them this explosive?

Stunks: Live like normal skunks? Possible. Only their stench is gaseous instead of liquid.

Thudslugs: Really, they're too heavy to fly. How come that they fly? What happens with their wings after being shot down? How do they hunt? (Flying into an enemy wouldn't be a nice feeling for them to do.) So, how about dropping onto land preys?
Or better, they're herbivore.

And last of all, Zapflies:
It's still weird how Stranger uses them. Lorne describes it like this: One shot of a Zapfly is a squeesed-out electrical bolt. After shooting you still contain the ONE zapfly.
Yet when you walk into a wall in first person and shoot a non-surged zapfly, you can clearly see it stuck in the wall. A surged zapfly seems to burn away. (???)
Anyway, their hunting style would be simple: Herbivore or to shock preys.
And then again: The digesting problem. Or do they live just like an other insect? Who knows...
