lol... i guess it would depend on the question: "Dangerous to who?". If you say to the human society, you might be right...

I think its the diamond back rattler. because its venom will start to decay the meat it touches almost instantly. so even if you don't die right then you still have this big chunk of meat that is slowly rotting away while you are still alive. :!:

Ok, that is disturbing...

Ok...from the type of venom aspect...we got 2 types of toxins in venom which are hemotoxins and neurotoxin. if both of them are subjected to human, which one will cause the 'fast & furious' death?? :lol:

for humans, probably not , but...snakes do help when it comes to pest control, particularly rodents, they eat all those kinds of things.
Perhaps if the snake's population goes down, the rodent population will go up.

Yup, it follows the food chain...I like the food chain..

the food chain yes, but if you want to go more technical yet, you could essentially call it fluctuations of species levels. If there are many snakes, there are few rodents. Because there are few rodents, snakes will die off. Now there is low snake levels and low rodent levels, and becuase there are low snake levels, the rodent population soars again. Eventually, the snakes will also soar, which will make the rodent populaiton decline fast agian. It's an endless work of nature. Don't you love it?

the coral snake is pretty poisonous, but there is a different snake that is not poisonous that looks exactly like it . there's an old saying that goes red on yellow, kills a fellow, red on black, venom lack

Hi! No the world's most poisonous snake is not the mamba, though its the world's fastest snake. Its the Australian small scale snake. One drop of venom kills 217000 mice. Wow!

That's what I mean by Inland Taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus)..
