The poison arrow frog tops most people's list of "The World's Most Poisonous Animals." Just two micrograms of toxin from the poison arrow frog is enough to kill a human. A "microgram" is a very small amount. The ink in the period at the end of this sentence will weigh around six micrograms.
By the way the differance between poisonous and venomous is that poisonous animal carries harmful chemicals called toxins. Usually, these toxins are used for defense, and are stored in the skin or in special glands. Venomous animals deliver their toxins by stinging, stabbing, or biting.

The most poisonous animal is not a snake or a spider. It's a beautiful little frog! Most frogs produce skin toxins, but the dart poison frogs from Central and South America are the most potent of all. The golden poison frog, called terribilis (the terrible), is so toxic that even touching it can be dangerous. Poison secreted from their skin. This chemical coating shields a frog from being eaten by predators. One tiny drop of toxin is all it takes to paralyze and in some cases kill a foe—including a person. A single terribilis contains enough poison to kill 20,000 mice or 10 people. It is probably the most poisonous animal on Earth.

the in simple terms poisonous animals i recognize of comprise (a million) the "arrow-poison" frogs. The act of ingesting them ought to steer on to the launch of venom from the glands on the lower back and subsequently poison the patron. (2) Puffer Fish as used for the favorite eastern Fugu dish. The venomous factors comprise a deadly poison (tetrodotoxin) which, if not get rid of earlier to being eaten, will right now reason lack of life. for sure there are one of those venomous creatures alongside with the Black Widow spiders yet I they could be eaten devoid of possibility in the adventure that they were squashed first; a similar is going for venomous centipedes, snakes and so on.

The human being. Capable of poisoning each other through their actions, their attitudes or their lack of respect for each other.

I believe, honestly, that it is the Daddy Lond Legs spider. Their poison is extremely deadly, they just cant open their mouths wide enough to bite us. There may be other, far more deadly animals, but thats the only one coming to my mind.

Sea snakes have the most potent venom known but are very timid so bites are rare
