Box Jellyfish
This marine animal is considered as the most venomous (marine) animal in the world by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The Box Jellyfish is usually found floating in the Indo-Pacific ocean. They floats at a speed of around 5 miles per hour. This marine animal is transparent and nearly invisible.

Pufferfish
This creature is the second most poisonous living vertebrate on the planet after Golden Arrow Start Frog. The Pufferfish is mainly found in the tropical seas around the globe and it contains neurotoxin or tetrodotoxin in it’s skin, liver, kidneys, muscle tissues, gonads which makes the creature more dangerous even when we touch it. This marine animal is a famous Japanese Dish called fugu and can only be prepared by some trained licensed chefs. Even after preventions there are many accidental deaths recorded every year in Japan by eating fugu. The neurotoxin present in Pufferfish is 1200 times more poisonous than Cyanide.
Black Mamba
There are many poisonous and dangerous snake species in the world like King Cobra and Boomslang. But the Black Mamba is most deadly creature. It is dangerous due to its high speed and deadly poison. A Black Mamba can grow upto 14 feets long and travel at a speed of 12.5 miles per hour. If you encountered a Black Mamba then your chances of survival are very low because Black Mamba can kill ten people in one bite and due to its speed it will bite repeatedly. If a Black Mamba bites you then if you do not receive antivenom in the next 20 minutes then your chances of survival are less than 1%.
Sydney Funnel-Web Spider
We can see Spiders in our house easily making webs in the corners, storerooms and other places. But if you see a Sydney Funnel-Web Spider anywhere then it is a matter of concern because if they bite you then your nervous system will shout out due to atracotoxin in their venom. The fatality occurs in adults within 30 minutes but interestingly these spiders can’t harm pets at your home or any other mammals because their venom shows strong results only on pure mammals and that are only humans. So you should run away whenever Sydney Funnel-Web Spider next time.
Stonefish
Stonefish is the most venomous fish known to humans and their appearance is just like rocks as their name suggests. Due to their appearance it is difficult for anyone to notice stonefish and as anyone will step on it then it will start injecting poison into your body. The harder anyone will step the more poison will be injected in the body. When stepping in Stonefish you may trigger its secondary defense mechanism also known as a lachrymal saber. The fatality of the venom can occur within 1 hour and it is reviewed to take anti-venom immediately and also prescribed to apply hot water over 45° C at the infected place.
