15 Most Poisonous Animals on Earth

Just like in our last video, let's get this out of the way. Poisonous and

poisonous

are not the same. I challenge you to look up the

most

poisonous

animals

in the world and find a list that isn't at least half poisonous

animals

. After hours of watching I now feel sorry for the toxicologist and what they must go through, both venomous and venomous animals produce toxins but what makes them different is the method of administration. Venomous animals must inject toxins into their prey, while venomous animals release their toxins in or around them. a duo of potential predators: fish compared to poisonous animals, poisonous animals are very few of each other, it turns out that having to be half eaten before potentially harming a predator is not an incredibly popular adaptation in the animal world, but The animals that managed to resist use some of the

most

lethal toxins on the planet, the animals on this list are ordered by increasing the oral lethal dose by fifty percent, so the further down the list we go, the less amount of toxin they would need your body to fade at room temperature. fifteen the cane toad this large species of toad can grow to be larger than your hand and produces some of the most poisonous toxins in the world with an ld50 of 0.5 to 1 milligram per kilogram if you have a dollar bill or a little. clip near you, go ahead and pick it up, you are holding something that weighs about a gram, which is 1000 times heavier than a milligram.

The Bufo toxins carried by the cane toad can kill 50 percent of mice with just one milligram and most other animals, including humans can be killed in numbers less than 100 and this is the least poisonous animal on the list . Cane toads were introduced to Australia due to their ability to control pests around sugar cane, but their numbers quickly skyrocketed into the millions because they lack a good number of natural predators in Australia of all places, venomous snakes, Lizards and even crocodiles will die from consuming the toxic, so be sure to wash your hands if you ever handle one of these tough number 14 Spanish Fly bags oh no, you got lost, listen to me.

Spanish fly is' t a fly or even a street jar of rhino horn dirt offered to you by a vendor promising unlimited promiscuity, it is an emerald green beetle that is part of a family of blister beetles and happens to produce a poison with a ld50 of 0.5. milligrams per kilogram The Spanish fly along with more than 7,500 other species of blister beetle produce a toxin known as cantharidin that has acted as a form of defense against hungry predators since the time of the ancient Greeks. Crushed blister beetles have been used for various folk medicines, including use as an aphrodisiac, cantharidin produced by the Spanish fly and other blister beetles is absorbed through the skin and causes blistering and burning when consumed, wreaking havoc on the body and causing ulcers, blisters and bleeding throughout the gastrointestinal tract, which can of course be fatal, it can also cause priapism much like the Brazilian wandering spider, but unfortunately this is accompanied by bleeding, severe pain and general misery in the area. number 13 flamboyant cuttlefish possibly the cutest poisonous animal on this list the flamboyant cuttlefish is a witty and fearless hamster-sized beauty with an LD50 of around 0.35 milligrams per kilogram.

I think it apparently harbors a toxin as deadly as the blue-ringed octopus tetrodotoxin, which was 15th on our list of poisonous animals. However, it is not well studied and only points to Normand, a highly respected marine biologist. Note that he has made the comparison, in any case, this adorable cuttlefish is one of only three cephalopods known to be venomous or venomous and can be found in the sea around northern Australia and towards New Guinea. The extravagant cuttlefish walk on the ocean floor due to their shrinkage. The hugging bones cause them reduced buoyancy, but what they lack in buoyancy they make up for in the family.

I know it was terrible when they were threatened by predators. These cephalopods flash a variety of colors and raise their dukes in an attempt to warn predators that they are dangerous considering their incredibly poisonous muscle tissue I would say it's a credible threat it's too cute it's disgusting xanthan crabs number 12 this family of crabs really doesn't It stands out more than other crabs in addition to the bright colors they display however these crabs have a symbiotic bacteria within them that produces tetrodotoxin with an ld50 of 0.33 4 milligrams per kilogram. Be careful, there are many marine animals that use tetrodotoxin for their benefit;

In fact, the next five animals on this list, including this one, have the same LD50, luckily some smart scientists created the mouse unit or amount of toxin needed to kill a mouse with one gram of animal meat which we will use for comparison. Xanthate crabs killed 9 mice for every gram of weight they have and are at the lower end of mouse units of different genus and species of these crabs can be found on coasts around the world and even on other worlds where they cause great pain many people star comb number eleven once again we have a marine animal that uses tetrodotoxin as a form of protection against predators and has enough toxins in every gram of its meat to kill 520 mice.

I forgot to mention before that there is no known antidote for tetrodotoxin when talking about crab, so be careful what sea creatures you eat. The spines located on the sides of the comb star's arms are used to help it dig into the sand so it can ingest detritus, biofilms from dead fish and even small mollusks which, in each shell, are excellent cleaners of the ocean floor and They are popular in aquariums because of this, although they could be deadly if there are any fish in the aquarium. I wonder what rough-skinned newt number 10 tastes like? These cute amphibians are one of three known venomous salamanders, but they are by far the most venomous of the three and can kill over a thousand mice per gram of weight, meaning they could easily be killed by a newt.

Anything that tries to eat it, except the common snake. Oddly enough, snakes seem to be able to taste how much toxin individual newts have and will only eat those with low amounts of toxin, but the fact that they can survive tetrodotoxin poisoning is nevertheless incredible. Ruskin newts are abundant in Northern California near water and can be safely handled as long as you don't try to eat them, something a drunk man in 1979 learned the hard way when he ate one on a dare before experiencing numbness and dying. of cardiac arrest. Two hours later, in his defense, it was a triple dog challenge, so he was forced to make it number nine.

Ribbon worms are rare and I mean, really very strange, the fact that some contain tetrodotoxin and quantities high enough to kill twenty-five thousand. and ninety mice per gram are tame compared to their other traits. Some of you have probably seen a video of this worm in action on YouTube once before They are commonly called proboscis worms because they literally shoot a part of their bodies that entangles themselves and into poisonous prey, yes some of them are too poisonous, what is even stranger is the fact that if they are out of water, tapeworms are as fragile as wet paper and can fall apart simply by picking them up, apparently falling apart doesn't bother them too much as they can reproduce both sexually and breaking off segments of their bodies, like I said, really strange, number eight, the puffer fish that everyone who sees has probably heard about how poisonous puffer fish are, especially thanks to almost every list of poisonous animals including them among The mostly poisonous animals, however, have good reason to introduce them, as they contain enough toxin to kill five to six million mice per gram.

Fugu, the Japanese word for puffer fish, has been consumed by the Japanese for centuries even though each fish contains a far greater than lethal dose of tetrodotoxin, apparently the liver is rumored to be the most delicious part of the fish despite which contains the largest amount of tetrodotoxin, which leads me to believe that this was someone's attempt at a joke, anyway today we understand that pufferfish are toxic due to the bacteria they have been producing tetrodotoxin, so some fish farms in Japan is now breeding non-toxic fugu that keeps them away from the deadly bacteria they normally pick up in the ocean.

Still, I can't imagine that a fish dish is potentially worth my life. Number Seven Rove Beetle Rove Beetles more specifically those that are part of the genus Duras are very similar to blister beetles in that their hemolymph causes blisters if they come into contact with the skin, however, the unique toxin that these beetles produce has an ld50 of only 14 milligrams per kilogram, making it almost five times more poisonous than if it cannot be thrown. Rove beetles can be found in several countries around the world and are particularly common on the eastern side of the United States.

Rove beetles are not really similar to what we imagine as average. I think they look more like earwigs and beetles. In any case, paradin production is actually left to female Rove beetles, which are used to defend their eggs from predators such as spiders. Paradin is a fairly unique toxin at levels as low as one nano gram per milliliter it can shut down a cell's ability to divide by inhibiting the production of proteins and DNA, which is shutting down life at a fundamental level. Number Six, unfortunately, had ever heard of a bird that was toxic before, in 1992, a Hooded Pitta who was found to have feathers coated with houma batrachotoxin very similar to the same toxin found in poison dart frogs. with an incredibly low ld50 during my lifetime.

I could not find a single study with batrachotoxin administered orally to any animal, only injections could be found. however, between 12 and 0.5 milligrams per kilogram is expected to be the lethal dose for humans if taken orally. It is currently theorized that beetles of the chorusing family are responsible for the petrenko toxin in which pitifui are encoded. Interestingly, poison dart frogs are found in the south. The US puts them on the other side of the world compared to peta hooey, but they both used the same toxin. Pitifui are native to New Guinea and the natives call them trash birds and refuse to eat them considering the fact that the birds smell rancid.

Milk holding them causes numbness in your fingers and eating them would kill you. It's an understandable name number five, golden poison dart frog. If you have ever seen a list about poisonous animals, you have surely seen the poison dart frog which is usually listed as one of the most poisonous animals in the world, not all poison frogs are created equal and each species carries a varying amount of oats. that attracts the oxen in their bodies. However, the golden poison dart frog is the queen when it comes to a coat of Petrak toxin or it has up to 20 times more than other dart frogs.

Phyllobates terribilis is the name given to this cute frog and its poisonous skin is certainly terrible for anyone who tries to eat it. You've definitely heard of poison dart frogs being used to coat darts with poison, but have you ever done it? I wondered how someone could eat an animal felled by a poison dart after all the poison had to course through the animal's veins to kill it. The subcutaneous LD50 of tracho toxin is incredibly low, two to three micrograms per kilogram, but its oral LD50 is a lot. higher, about 0.12 to 0.5 milligrams per kilogram, which means that the small amount of toxin that the darter encodes is diluted enough not to kill hunters, still don't try to swallow a poison dart frog, it will definitely kill you.

Bead number four lit The anemone bead lit against an enemy contains aquinnah toxins that together have an ld50 of 33 micrograms per kilogram. This feels like cheating, but not only are the beetle and the enemy poisonous, so are both the mucus and the stinging cells of the beetle and the enemy. They contain aquinnah toxin, which is especially suitable for destroying the blood cells that animals need to transport oxygen throughout their bodies; However, the new monocytes produced by the beetle and an enemy do not appear to be able to pierce human skin or the scales of larger fish, limiting the lethal effects.

Exposure to trying to eat a strangely lit anemone is incredibly aggressive and territorial to the point that it will continually attack any anemone that is not the same species.until it's gone. They can be found all along the coasts of the UK and as far south as Africa. and our other popular aquarium pet, just make sure you don't try to eat them number three, boo, well known Osama pellet, if at this point we have reached poisons with toxicities higher than the most lethal of the Venom pellets, the anemone produced the toxin BGK in your mucus, which has an ld50 of only 4.5 micrograms per kilogram, that is, four point five millionths of a gram or the weight of a paper clip.

These little anemones can be found all over the coast of Cuba and what they really want is to stay alive at night. These anemones open their doors. tentacles and catch small prey, but during the day or when they feel threatened, they pull their tentacles into their bodies and release a thick mucus containing BGK into the water around them. BGK is a neurotoxin that disrupts the potassium ion channels that almost all animals have, making it quite an effective defense for staying alive number two a lethal toxic ax pal etho ax is a genre of zoo anthems, many of which produce one of the most toxic organic compounds on the planet with an ld50 of 0.4 micrograms per kilogram known simply as polytoxin.

Halle toxin alters the sodium ion pumps used by almost all the cells in your body, making it especially deadly. It makes Finding Nemo suddenly a lot more metallic. Do you want this anemone to sting you? Yes, brush. There is an ancient Hawaiian legend about the creation of the Palli toxin after a shark gut. He was killed and his ashes thrown into a tidal pool from which coral-like seaweed sprouted which, when used to cover the spears, caused instant death to those hit by the spears. You would think that being impaled on a poisoned spear by a nun would have similar effects, but the ancient Hawaiians had more. experience inI witness spear kills that I, sometimes shovel species end up in aquariums and unlucky owners can be poisoned if they try to remove the anemone.

Palli toxin is the second most toxic non-protein known, surpassed only by the number one toxin on this list. Straightened surgeonfish, what does it sound like to have symptoms of food poisoning for almost 20 years? The straightened sergeant fish, as well as some other species of fish, contain both mate toxin and sigma toxin due to the toxic player discus, it is a protist that makes its living near and on algae in the sea, the oral ld50 of the toxins of toro together has not been studied in depth so far, however, it is not that the LD50 for both should be between 0.2 and 0.5 micrograms per kilogram, that is, between 200 and 500 nanograms, which makes it in the second. or the third most lethal organically produced toxin behind botulinum toxin and perhaps tetanus toxins.

Ciguatera fish poisoning affects between 20,000 and 50,000 people a year because these toxins infect certain fish and the resulting food poisoning can last from weeks to years. The symptoms can be so severe that Sometimes misdiagnosed as multiple sclerosis, the toxins can't even be removed by cooking, so if you get a fish that contains enough toxin, you could end up sick or, if the case is extreme enough, die, so be sure to be careful when eating. fish from imported tropical waters, as always, be sure to check the description of the sources until the next video dosvedanya.
