most poisonous animal

What is the most poisonous animal in the world?

Poisonous (actually venomous) animals will generally use their venom to stun or kill other animals so they can eat it. They may also use it as a defense against predators. Despite what you may have heard, the “Daddy Long Legs” spider is not the most venomous animal at all. Some types are non-venomous and others have very little venom – and they are not even spiders!
So what is the most venomous animal? That title goes to the venomous arrow frogs of the rainforest. A drop of their venom the size of a pin head could kill a human. Just holding them is taking a risk on your life. Luckily, they have bright colors to alert you to their venomous status.
By the way, when it comes to venom, the Blue Ring Octopus is a close contender for most poisonous.
