The Inland Taipan Snake

via

The inland taipan snake is a small-scaled serpent with fatal, fast-acting venom. It is considered one of the deadliest snake species, with the most toxic venom compared to other reptiles when tested on a cell culture of the human heart. The inland taipan’s venom is specifically targeted to take down warm-blooded animals, and one bite is said to be enough to kill 100 grown men. It moves extremely fast and strikes with a high degree of accuracy. If left untreated, a bite from this snake can lead to death in a matter of 30 to 45 minutes.
