  1. African raddle snake,King cobra,and the Black mambo.


  2. Edgehead has a good list.

    Snakes are not poisonous btw they are venomous.  Poisonous means if you eat or ingest it, it will be toxic.  Venomous animals secrete toxins into your blood if they bite you.

  3. our p***s.....

  4. The most toxic and potent vemon comes from the one and only Inland Taipan (oxyuranus microlepidotus) - which is native to Australia.

    It also goes by the name Fiece Snake or Small Scaled Snake. Its venom is 50 times more toxic than that of the indian cobra, and 650 to 850 times more toxic than the eastern and western diamondback rattlesnake.
