The Golden Dart Frog is very dangerous. It doesn’t even have to attack to get its point across. The skin on this frog has a coat of poison lethal enough to kill ten grown men. One touch and you’re out for the count. Please, don’t let the attractive yellow skin fool you. Did we mention it’s only the size of a paperclip? You can find them in the Pacific Coast of Colombia. Think twice before you visit the beautiful country and you come across this pretty little guy.

Don’t let this little guy fool you, or else it will be the end of your life before you know it. The Cone Snail looks tame, but they are far from it. They gave this creature the nickname “Cigarette Snail” because you have enough time smoke one before you end up passing away. As heinous as that sounds, its due to their poison being very deadly. A single drop is capable of killing 20 adult males and there is no known antivenom.

The Inland Taipan is the most venomous snake in the world. One bite alone is has enough venom to take down 100 grown men. The good news is that people hardly encounter these vipers. They dwell in Australia where they really try and remain hidden. The snake also tries to slither away from potential threats as quickly as possible even though they are dangerous themselves.

Where is that Cone Snail found?

There are over 900 different species of cone snails. Cone snails are typically found in warm and tropical seas and oceans worldwide, and they reach their greatest diversity in the Western Indo-Pacific region. However, some species are adapted to temperate/semi tropical environments, such as the Cape coast of South Africa, the Mediterranean, or the cool subtropical waters of southern California (Conus californicus) and are endemic to these areas.

Cone snails are found in all tropical and subtropical seas, from the intertidal zone to deeper areas, living on sand or among rocks or coral reefs. When living on sand, these snails bury themselves with only the siphon protruding from the surface. Many tropical cone snails live in or near coral reefs. Some species are found under rocks in the lower intertidal and shallow subtidal zones. They can be incredibly deadly.

The Fire-bellied snake has developed a resistance to its poison. It is believed that the snakes detoxify the frog’s poison with a substance contained in the saliva, which makes it the only natural predator of the golden poison dart frog.
