Many people ask why the Happy Tree Friends can keep on dying, and, despite Wikia being supposed to document as much as is possible about everything out there, it's not something that can be covered, because there is next-to-no plot continuity. Splendid turning back time in Better Off Bread. The explosion from Class Act, probably the most famous death in the series. Handy, Sniffles, Flippy, Flaky, Splendid, Pop, Shifty (but not Lifty), and Lumpy are the few characters who killed another on purpose. Essentially, a kill on the other characters is a kill, a kill on one-self is a death, as a kill here is defined by killing another character. The reason behind this is because kill and death counts are meant to be comparable, and suicide, by a different logic, would count as a kill and a death, which doesn't allow a fair point of view on a few characters. When a suicide occurs, such as Petunia in Wishy Washy, these are not kills, and are, therefore, not counted in the characters' kill count.

Obviously, in Happy Tree Friends, death can happen in multiple ways: it can occur through a series of accidents, or on purpose, it can be caused by other characters, the environment, or even posthumously by the dead. On the same tone as 'fresh', Kenn Navarro has stated that the series does its best to utilize unconventional and imaginative deaths, as they do not intend to use simple, unimaginative methods such as death by firearm (although this has been contradicted when Fliqpy killed Cuddles with a pistol in the New Season Teaser). This allows for a huge range of deaths and injuries to keep the show interesting and fresh.

The truth with Happy Tree Friends is there is no consistency with death and injury, the characters can be as weak or strong as necessary for the given scenario to play out such as Splendid, who can survive in space, crashing through buildings, flying into a meteorite, being hit by a bus, and getting crushed by the moon, yet dies in a measly classroom explosion. Splendid can survive getting crushed by the moon.
