Cedar waxwings do something similar - their favorite food is juniper berries, and usually by the time they're migrating and need to eat a lot, those juniper berries are fermenting on the bush or have dropped off. I've seen bunches of these idiots just rolling around too drunk to fly.
I ask because it makes me think of those toads you can lick. Psychoactive substances that are derived from animals are a pretty rare category, and ones that can be attained without harming the animal are an even smaller category within that. So its an interesting thing to think about.

They're asking if the biochemical processes that allow it to function cease in a way that is detrimental to the organisms continued existence
I think they mean "unalive"
It doesn’t actually, just traumatised, dolphin know how much they can take without dying themselves
MST3K 822 - "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank"
I remembered these drunk animals but had totally forgotten it was from watching MST3K.
This wasn't clear to me in the comment, but Caapi is the MAOI. Chacruna leaf has the the DMT.
Maybe they're vaping it?
Why “Ualabis”? Strange that it’s the only word not in English.
its a wallaby https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallaby
Yes I understand that, but why is it in a different language.
