* Echidna, Mother of Monsters. Many adaptations (''[[Dungeons and Dragons (Tabletop Game)|Dungeons and Dragons]]'' for example) record her as the Ur-Monster, the ancestor of a large portion of the world's monstrous population... usually the near-mindless sorts, leaving the [[What Measure Is a Non
Line 105:
* In ''[[Bio Metal]]'', a computer analysis apparently shows the titular monsters increasing in such a number that, if their planet is not destroyed within 32 hours, they would take over the entire galaxy!
* ''[[Creatures]]'': Norns. Especially a genetic variant known as Fast-ager norns, who reach adulthood within seconds, live forever and are incredibly fertile. Many Fast-ager norns also go through pregnancy extremely fast, leaving them ready to breed almost immediately. If it weren't for the population limit preventing new eggs from hatching, they'd crash your game.
* In ''[[Galactic Civilizations]]'', the Torians and custom races with the same Super Ability breed ''four times as fast'' when they're happy. This tends to cause morale problems due to overpopulation, but on the other hand boosts your income (more people = more taxpayers) and makes it hard to invade your worlds unless the enemy has [[Kill
* The Minecraft rabbits mod allows two rabbits to breed a baby rabbit when placed in close proximity. The issue it that this gets going exponentially when put in a small enough space: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2clZL-9AIM\]
* In ''[[The Guardian Legend (Video Game)|The Guardian Legend]]'', one of the enemies in the labyrinth areas is a [[Demonic Spider|blue spider]] that if left unkilled, turns orange, then red, then it splits into seven identical copies of itself. These individual copies can split even more, making things a little... complicated.
Line 134:
* ''[[The Smurfs]]'' had fuzzles, which multiplied whenever they ate something.
* ''[[The Angry Beavers (Animation)|The Angry Beavers]]'': The beavers decide to stay up all night because they're not tired. After a night of shenanigans and fun, they find themselves still not tired so they use various methods, including using a herd of sheep to sleep, to no avail. However little did they know the power of their alarm clock was off, leaving it the same time. They realize they have been awake for thousands of years when they find their house in the middle of a futuristic world over-populated entirely with sheep.
* ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'': The Parasprites from "Swarm of the Century". Like the famous tribbles, they also reproduce asexually and end up eating everything.
* The Jakovasaurs on ''[[South Park (Animation)|South Park]]''. The two that are the last of their kind breed and children keep popping out. When the town tries to get rid of them with a fixed game show, the prize is a trip to France for himself and 50 of his closest relatives.
** Oddly inverted with St. Peter Rabbit, who apparently had just ''one'' descendent (Snowball) despite being of this trope's archetypal species.
