Frankly speaking, to name the most poisonous animal in the world is not an easy question to answer because there are a lot of criteria that matters. First of all, let me explain you that a poisonous animal is an animal that carries harmful chemicals – toxins and as a rule it uses them for self-defense. However, we all know that the road to hell is paved with good intentions and these allegedly nice animals are still dangerous killers. Look at the following photo attentively and find more about the most dangerous animal in the world.
You will be surprised because it is not a tiger and not a snake, it is the Box Jellyfish. Since 1954 this relatively small animal has caused approximately 5,567 deaths!!! Its venom considered to be one of the most deadliest in the world because it damages the heart, nervous system, and skin cells. The bad news – venom is THAT toxic and painful that victims go in shock, and can die in a couple of minutes.
Unfortunately, there are virtually no chance to survive the sting. In order to stay alive after a sting, vinegar should be applied for a minimum of 30 seconds and it can conquer the venom but not alleviate the pain. Always wear panty hose while swimming in places with box jellyfish warning. Jelly box can be found in the waters around Asia and Australia.
