Easter Brown Snakes

Oh, Australia, home to the world’s second most venomous land snake, the Eastern Brown Snake. Usually found in highly populated areas across eastern Australia, this deadly slithering creature is behind 21 deaths since the year 2000 (statistically, that’s more than one year!). A bite from this snake can inject you with 2-6mg of venom that’s likely to give you a cardiac arrest or uncontrolled bleeding within just 15 minutes! If you don’t want to die fast, stay away from them.

There’s already a ton of venomous fishes in the waters of Australia, and here’s yet another one to watch out for -the Lionfish. You mess with them and they’ll mess with you too using the venom in their fin rays that will give you immense pain, vomiting, and if you get it worse, paralysis even!
