Yes, this beetle runs out of a frog’s anus to survive being swallowed alive

There is a species of water beetle that regularly gets swallowed whole
by frogs. And while there’s a lot of things you can do to keep from
being eaten, once you’re inside a frog, your options are severely
limited. Generally you get digested. But this particular species of
beetle said “You know, I bet there’s another way.” And it started
walking. In fact, it walked through the frog’s digestive tract and out
the back end.

Isn't nature wonderful?  :)
