1 Box jellyfish 
Although the Australian box jellyfish just misses
having the most potent venom on this list, it is
probably the most deadly. It is large in size yet
almost transparent in the water, and its
tentacles can sting you with its millions of
nematocysts, injecting a hefty amount of venom
while holding its victim in place. The venom's
toxins can cause extreme pain, paralysis,
delirium, shock, cardiac arrest and even death
within minutes.

2 Inland taipan snake
The prize for The Worlds Most Venomous Snake
goes to the Inland Taipan of Australia. Just a
single bite from this snake contains enough venom
to kill 100 human adults or an army of 250,000
mice. Its venom is at least 200 400 times more
toxic than a common cobra. The Inland Taiwans
extremely neurotoxic venom can kill an adult
human in as little as 45 minutes.

3 Blue-ringed octopus
The Blue-Ringed Octopus is very small, only the
size of a golf ball, but its venom is powerful
enough to kill 26 adult humans within minutes,
and there is no antidote. They are currently
recognized as one of the worlds most venomous
animals. Its painless bite may seem harmless, but
the deadly neurotoxins begin working immediately
resulting in muscular weakness, numbness,
followed by a cessation and breathing and
ultimately death

4 Marbled Cone Snail
This little beautiful looking Cone snail can be
as deadly as any other animal on this list. One
drop of its venom is powerful enough to kill more
than 20 humans. If you ever happen to be in warm
salt water environment (where these snails are
often found) and see it, dont even think of
picking it up. Of course, the true purpose of its
venom is to catch its prey, and not to kill you.
There is no antivenom currently present.

5 Poison Dart Frog
The Poison Dart Frog is probably the most
poisonous animal on earth. The 2 inch long (5cm)
golden poison dart frog has enough venom to kill
10 adult humans or 20,000 mice. Only 2 micrograms
of this lethal toxin (the amount that fits on the
head of a pin) is capable of killing a human or
other large mammal. Poison dart frogs keep their
poison in their skins and will sicken or kill
anybody who touches or eats it.
