Butt Biter - TV Tropes

It's a dog-bite-dog world out there.

"Bitten in ze butt!
Got an awful tear!
Took a little nibble from my derriere!
I will get you in ze end, dog!
You'll regret you bit me, chum!
Ooooh, I am so irritated I got bitten in ze bum!"

— Tritesse, "Les Miseranimals" (Sang to Master of the House), Animaniacs (1993)

Animals are one of nature's beauties of the earth. Some are cute and cuddly while others can be rather shy. However, there's this kind of animal, the biting kind that can literally bite you on the butt if you're not careful.

This breed of animal is what's known as a Butt Biter; they can be dogs, cats, pigs, ferrets, any other animal you can think of, but usually not a human. The next time you come across this type of animal, beware. If the biter is venomous then woe betide the friends who have to Suck Out the Poison.

Often results in the butt-biter making off with a piece of trouser fabric, leaving a hole behind through which Goofy Print Underwear may be visible. A much less violent variant is someone getting their pants pulled down by a biting animal, often while attempting to escape.

Usually happens to men, but women are not immune to this.

Sub-Trope of Amusing Injuries, Joke of the Butt, Literal Ass-Kicking, and Pain to the Ass.

Compare: Animals Hate Him, Rump Roast, Shot in the Ass and Thumbtack on the Chair. Is likely to cause a Pain-Powered Leap. Can often happen to a Naïve Animal Lover if they're too naive. Has nothing to do with Beavis and Butt-Head, even though one of Butt-Head's favorite insults was "buttmunch."

Real Life

Wolves actually do this as a hunting method. When taking on larger prey such as elk or moose, they bite into the hindquarters, seeking to either grab hold of their prey and drag it down so that another wolf can take a shot at biting its throat or to try crippling it by severing the hamstrings.
Lions not only bite large prey such as buffalo on their rears, but cling to or even climb onto their intended dinner's hindquarters while doing so, to force the prey to its knees with sheer weight.
One theory about how saber-toothed cats hunted is that they may have grappled large prey animals from behind and sank their saber teeth into the animal's hindquarters to try and puncture the large arteries back there.
