Are there any animals that naturally like spicy food? Like most

Pretty sure pajeets like spicy food

The avian TRPV1 receptor is insensitive to capsaicin. In practice, this means that birds are completely immune to the pain-inducing effects of hot peppers either in the mouth or the intestinal tract.

This means that birds are often the major pepper-eaters in the animal world, and they help to germinate pepper seeds with their shit. But it's not for the spiciness, they merely enjoy the flavor of the fruit.

Animals don't like spice because most things that produce capsaicin do so to repel predators, not attract them.

Is that how it works for all birds? I feel sorry for them, spicy food is great and they're missing out.

Nice!

Yes but you would think at least a few animals would adapt such as the plants have done to be able to tolerate it or even enjoy it. Plus, like fruits, there are lots of seeds in peppers which could benefit from being fertilized by some larger mammal or reptile in an area further away then plants or wind could take the seeds.

Birds, motherfucker. Birds don't feel pain, peppers are just normal fruit to them.

large brains allow us to alter the perception of heat. The taste of hot isn't a taste, its actually pain.

Birds don't feel pain.
Birds don't feel remorse.
Birds don't feel pity.
Only anger.

The general theory is that plants evolved capsaicin to ward off mammals eating their fruit since mammalian teeth would grind up the seeds.

Did you know that chicken raised on peppers lay eggs with bright red yolks?

>>2364501
Why tho? Is it healthy for them to eat so many peppers?

>>2364501
Never heard of that before but it's interesting. Do their eggs taste different?

I remember an article on an on-foot mailman and the things they have to deal with, and one of the things he had to worry about was wild turkeys on his beat and that the repellent spray that mail personal carry to ward off dogs is capsaicin based so it didn't work for the turkeys.
