Though This keeps me from trying it at home:
"The larger dominant male suddenly died on June 15 after severe chasing between the males, though there were no apparent injuries on its body... ...The larger male suddenly died on September 26 (21 days after the start). This pattern of the larger male dying continued... ...In all three other large males (101–106 mm in TL, n=3) subsequently died on September 30, October 10 and 27"
