The most dangerous

animals in the world

Golden Poison Dart Frog
The golden poison dart, inhabits the small range
of rain forests along Colombia’s Pacific coast.
Its poison, is so potent that there’s enough in
one frog to kill ten grown men. Its poison
glands are located beneath its skin.
Where to find them: Northern South America
 Pufferfish
Pufferfish, also known as blowfish, are located in
tropical seas around the globe. Though they’re the
second most poisonous vertebrate on the planet, they’re
arguably more dangerous as their neurotoxin . The
tetrodotoxin is up to 1,200 times more poisonous than
that of cyanide, and can cause deadening of the tongue
and lips, dizziness, vomiting, arrhythmia, difficulty
breathing, muscle paralysis, and, if left untreated, death.
Where to find them: Around Japan, China, and the
Philippines
Saltwater Crocodile
Of all the species in the world, the largest—and most
dangerous—is the saltwater crocodile. These ferocious
killers can grow up to 23 feet in length, weigh more
than a ton.
Where to find them: The Indo-Pacific region ranging
from parts of India and Vietnam, all the way to
northern Australia
Lion

Lions sleep about 20 hours each day, but if a human

encounters a lion, it’s game over. The worst thing
you can do is run or faint. The lion’s biggest weapons
are their speed, sharp teeth and the pack.
Where to find them: Africa and India
Stonefish
The most venomous fish. Stonefish, after all,
are named for their visual similarity to rocks,
primed and ready with potent neurotoxins.
Fatality from stonefish venom can occur
within an hour, so it’s recommended to seek
antivenom immediately.
Where to find them: Coastal Indo-Pacific
Ocean, The Red Sea, and the Great Barrier
Reef
