What is the most venomous snake in the world?
 

Ive been seeing all kinds of different programs that say what the most venomous snake in the world is. I always thought it was the inland Taipan but today I saw a show that said it was number 3. Ive seen another show that says the Boomslang is the most venomous. Can someone please tell me wich one it is? :confused:

i believe the most venomous snake is the fierce snake also known as the inland taipan im not 100% sure on this but i think im right, please correct me if im wrong

there r 2 speices of taipan, the inland taipan is the worlds' most venomous snake and the coastal taipan is the world's 3rd most venomouse.

im pretty sure the most venemous snake is the hydrophiidae (spelling) its a sea snake....the one with white ant black bands.

benny boy is right...

Are you talking about the sea krait? I dont think its in the top 10.

here,s wat it is, im pretty sure
sea krait-most poisenous
boomslang-most lethal drop for drop
gaboon viper-worst pain :D

ummmm snakes arent poisonous... ;)

i ahev always heard that it is the olive sea snake or the becked sea snake.i have mostly heard that the sea snakes r the monst venomous

boomslangs are rear fanged...they can be lathal too humans but definatley not in the top ten and cant be number one.

I found the site to answer my questions. Its the Fierce snake also known as the inland taipan. The only sea snake on the list is the Beaked Sea Snake and its number 6. Thanks for everyones help.

Fierce snake=Inland Taipain=King Brown

All the same, I do believe, and the most venomous snake in the world.

While studies are of LD-50s, but...
 

if you got some gland fulls of certain snakes like some cobras and like the King Cobra, I don't think it would matter what the most venomous snake is ? It also seems the most venomous snake has changed to what specie in the last 20 years. I think I recall at one time the Boomslang was up there with one of the specie of Sea Snake. The venom Doc is most knowledgeable on this subject.

I thought it was the austrailian King Brown Snake.

jamie

the king brown is a different snake, much bigger than the taipan and has a lot more spunk.
