During infection, your macrophages call for neutrophils, which vomit deadly chemicals at bacteria or devour them. Some even go so far as to self-destruct and explode, casting wide and toxic nets made from their own DNA, filled with deadly chemicals which trap and kill bacteria.

On the April page of our 12,024 calendar, you see life on a planet twice as large as Earth, that is orbiting an orange dwarf. Plants are dark to maximize the absorption of visible light and the white color of the crawling predator actually serves as camouflage.
