Animals on drugs!

Black lemurs get high off millipedes in Madagascar. The lemurs bite the millipedes gently to provoke the millipedes to spray out defensive chemicals including cyanide. The lemurs crave these chemicals and rub the secretions all over their body to act as an insect repellant but as a consequence the lemurs enter a blissful state.

Why must their 'drug use' be harmful? Why? Because they seem enjoy it therefore it MUST be harmful? If they were downing beers then that wouldn't be 'harmful'?
