Bullet Ants
The bullet ant, commonly found in the rainforests of the Amazon, is known for having one of the most painful and lethal stings in the insect kingdom. Apart from the painful bite, the bullet ant’s sting also causes local shaking and temporary paralysis of the area. The pain lasts anywhere from five to 24 hours, with the agony coming in waves. While the effects of the venom stay only within the bitten area, the pain is so excruciating that it can incapacitate a fully grown man.
