The Yeerks are running experiments on sharks by implanting sci-fi devices in their heads. The Animorphs accidentally get these devices implanted in them, and if they morph anything relatively small, their heads will explode.
23.
The Animorphs fight their way up a tower full of bad guys. Marco, in the form of a gorilla, gets his stomach sliced open, and Rachel, in the form of a grizzly bear, gets one of her paws sliced off. They're here because Space Jesus showed them a Yeerk weak spot.

30.
After crash landing in the Amazon rainforest, an unconscious Rachel gets ripped apart by a swarm of ants. All the Animorphs die violently, but are saved thanks to time travel shenanigans (but still have full memories of dying violently).
31.
Remember the pacifistic robot dogs? They have a ship on the bottom of the ocean, and it looks like Snoopy for Peanuts.
