Most snakes are not very aggressive. Generally they will not attack things they can't eat unless they feel threatened or are attacked.

For example, if there are a group of people walking past a snake, the snake usually doesn't bite the first person, but often the second or third person. Possibly because it thinks it is one person coming back (snakes aren't too smart).

I am leaning towards the Australian Yellow Belly Brown snake. In the bush it is considered the snake to be most wary of.

In terms of being deadly, it depends on the snake. For example, coral sea snakes have the most deadly poison, but actually a bite only delivers a small amount. While other snakes (I am not sure which ones) have less deadly poison but deliver more in one bite.

Now the Yellow Belly Brown doesn't have very deadly poison, but it doesn't deliver a lot in a bite, but will bite one person many times.

So not only are the likely to attack, but when they start attacking they will keep attacking.

this is the sea snake however the only bites are from fishermen bringing them onboard, the main venomous land snake is the inland taipan in regular australia heavily accompanied by the king brown snake The a million that reasons the main deaths international is the observed scaled viper, it has a great variety (egypt to india) and india is densly populated. and have a solid recommendations-set and venom. at the same time as they known one metre in length, their cryptic coloring and aggressive recommendations-set (they'll strike different circumstances if given the prospect) cause them to risky to human beings. Pair this with the reality that they inhabit a number of the poorest areas interior the worldwide with loss of clinical care (and the human beings residing right here stroll around barefoot consistently) and that left untreated a chew sufferer has a 75% danger of death, and those snakes replace into VERY risky.

Probably the most aggressive, not most venomous, is a toss-up between the King Cobra & the black mamba. Both snakes will aggressively defend their territory, not back off, like the majority of snakes will.

Australia’s inland Taipan snake is the world’s deadliest snake. The Taipan snake has a bite which is 50 times more toxic than a cobra’s. It also easily comes out tops in terms of overall “killing power” which is measured in terms of its aggressiveness, length of its fangs, amount of venom injected per bite etc etc.. I think you get the idea. However, to be fair to ALL snakes, deaths by snakebite are rarer than deaths by lightning strike.
