: : We should not be considering venom toxicity but the likelyhood of human contact, which would in my opinion put the likes of the indian cobra, russell's viper and the saw scaled viper in the top five.

: : : : : : can you tell me the names of the ten most

: : : : : : poisonous snakes in the world?

: : : : :(not in order)

: : : African boomslang and the African vine snake

: : : are responsible for human fatalities but most use venom to quiet struggling prey. Also, sea snakes,Australian tiger snake and king cobra possess venom.

: : The ten most venomous snakes are all found in Australia with the FIERCE SNAKE bieng the most deadliest venom-wise. But I think the real issue is what snakes kill the most people and are the most aggresive. From what I've heard the Fierce snake rarely comes into contact with humans so it hasn't killed any to my knowledge. Now, look at the Black Mamba of Africa and the Taipan of Australia and if you consider that both will not back down from a human and will actually go for one and that they both posses great speeds and very dadly venom(Taipan is either three or four on the list of deadly snakes) I think that they are probably two of the deadliest snakes in the world, but that's just my opinion:)

: : most deadly snake is without a doubt the saw scale FIELD AND STREAM MAG about a year ago will try to find mag. snakes was the coverpage.antivenom comes from injecting venom into horses.the antibodies they build up is used to make antivenom.in most cases saw scale venom kills the horses.the saw scale doesn`t inject the most venom. it is not the most poisoness. the saw scale are in highly populated areas.because of the difficulties making antivenom and it`s agressiveness it kills more people per year than all of the other venomous snakes combined. look for FIELD AND STREAM MAG. about a year or so back. hope this helped.
