Can you shove something?

Yes, hypothetically you can shove anything. However, the results of said shoving will vary based on what is being shoved. For example, if I shove a flat screen TV, for whatever reason (perhaps the Futurama Marathon just ended), it would submissively fall and probably break! However, if I were to shove a building, such as my house, nothing would really happen. Unless the house was victim to serious structural flaw.

Most try to flee from the danger but some will send warning signs not to get any closer like the distinctive rattling a rattle snake makes with it's tail when threatened. Others will posture, growl, bare their teeth and show other defensive behaviors in an attempt to deter the danger. Still others will act submissively, if the danger is posed by a member of their own species, or some, like the opossum, will play dead in order to deter the threat.
