5 World's Most Dangerous Snake

Its been quite long time since I last upload a new entry. So this is my 11th entry. I wanna thanks to all who read my entries as well as my friends entries. This time I wanna share to you one of the most dangerous wild animals, snakes. Obviously, snakes have no leg but could glide really fast. Plus some of them are very poisonous. So here are the 5 world's most dangerous snakes there is. Enjoy :

1. Belcher's Sea Snake

  When most people think of poisonous snakes, the rattlesnake springs to mind pretty quickly. These snakes are found throughout the Americas and are actually a type of viper. Their name comes of course from the rattle which is found at the end of the tail and which creates a distinctive noise. Eastern Diamondbacks are the most poisonous of all rattlesnakes. Thankfully, only about 4% of bites result in fatalities with prompt treatment, but untreated, any rattlesnake bite has the potential to kill. The venom can also cause permanent damage to organs and may even lead to the loss of a limb.

Did You Know?
Most Belcher’s Sea Snakes are actually quite harmless thanks to a docile personality and a lack of venom.

  Did you know?

The largest rattlesnake specie is the eastern diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus), up to 2.4 metres (8 feet) in length and weight 1.8kg to 4.5kg (4 to 10 pounds)

3. Death Adder

  You know that famous legend about Cleopatra using a snake to kill herself? The type of snake she supposedly used was a death adder. You can find these snakes throughout Australia, New Guinea, and other regions. A bite can result in paralysis, respiratory arrest, and death inside of only six hours. With fast treatment, a patient is unlikely to die, but without treatment, about 50% of bites are lethal. Death adders also prey on other snakes.

4. Inland Taipan

  While it’s difficult to be as impressed by the Inland Taipan after learning about the concentration of venom in a Belcher’s Sea Snake bite, it’d be foolish to discount the Taipan just because its bite can only kill as many as 100 people! Taipans usually avoid human contact, however, and you are unlikely to ever encounter one.

  Did You Know?

Inland taipan has excellent eyesight and sense of smell which are used for detection of the prey. Its diet consists of rodents, small mammals and birds.

5. Blue Krait

  This snake is not as well known as some, but its venom is 16 times more potent than that of the cobra! There also is no really good antivenin to use, which makes it quite deadly. The Blue Krait tends to keep to itself and usually only comes out at night, though, so it is generally easy to avoid.

Remember, most of the the colourful snakes are poisonous, so be sure to keep clear of them quickly. Never try to be a hero or you'll get yourself hurt along it. That's all for today. Thanks for reading!!!
