Livio Andrea Acerbo ti fornirà i dettagli dei 5 animali più velenosi del mondo. Livio Acerbo crede che questi animali siano davvero molto pericolosi e possano uccidere gli umani in pochi secondi.

2. 1: BOX JELLYFISH

Although the Australian box
jellyfish just misses having the
most potent venom on this list, it
is probably the most deadly. It is
large in size yet almost transparent
in the water, and its tentacles can
sting you with its millions of
nematocysts, injecting a hefty
amount of venom while holding its
victim in place. The venom's toxins
can cause extreme pain, paralysis,
delirium, shock, cardiac arrest and
even death within minutes.

3. 2: INLAND TAIPAN SNAKE

The prize for “The World’s Most
Venomous Snake” goes to the
Inland Taipan of Australia. Just a
single bite from this snake
contains enough venom to kill
100 human adults or an army of
250,000 mice. Its venom is at least
200 – 400 times more toxic than a
common cobra. The Inland
Taiwan’s extremely neurotoxic
venom can kill an adult human in
as little as 45 minutes.

4. 3: BLUE-RINGED OCTOPUS
The Blue-Ringed Octopus is very
small, only the size of a golf ball, but
its venom is powerful enough to kill
26 adult humans within minutes, and
there is no antidote. They are
currently recognized as one of the
world’s most venomous animals. Its
painless bite may seem harmless, but
the deadly neurotoxins begin
working immediately resulting in
muscular weakness, numbness,
followed by a cessation and
breathing and ultimately death

5. 4: MARBLED CONE SNAIL
This little beautiful looking Cone
snail can be as deadly as any
other animal on this list. One drop
of its venom is powerful enough
to kill more than 20 humans. If
you ever happen to be in warm
salt water environment (where
these snails are often found) and
see it, don’t even think of picking
it up. Of course, the true purpose
of its venom is to catch its prey,
and not to kill you. There is no
antivenom currently present.

6. 5: POISON DART FROG
The Poison Dart Frog is probably
the most poisonous animal on
earth. The 2 inch long (5cm) golden
poison dart frog has enough
venom to kill 10 adult humans or
20,000 mice. Only 2 micrograms of
this lethal toxin (the amount that
fits on the head of a pin) is capable
of killing a human or other large
mammal. Poison dart frogs keep
their poison in their skins and will
sicken or kill anybody who touches
or eats it.
