Most Dangerous Snakes In The World

What comes to mind when we hear the name of snakes, well we do not need to tell this. While snakes have neither hands nor feet, nor sharp nails, they are still one of the most dangerous predators in the world, and the biggest reason for this is its venom. Although not all snakes are poisonous, but some snakes are so poisonous that a drop of their venom can kill many people. Some 2500-3000 species of snakes are found in the world, of which around 500 are venomous. There are about 270 species of snakes found in India and out of these only 4 species of snakes are poisonous and people die due to their bites. These snakes are- Cobra (Snake), Krait, Russell’s Viper and Saw Scaled Viper. Apart from these, king cobra, hump-nosed pit viper and banded krait are also venomous snakes, but they are very few in number.

However, scientists believe that many times death is not caused by snake venom, but people give up their lives due to its panic. Most venomous snakes are found in Australia. Many people think that snake bites on seeing someone, that too without any reason, but the truth is something else. Snakes are more afraid of us than we are afraid of snakes and that is why they stay hidden.

Snake teeth and venom are for hunting aid and self-defense. In search of food, the snake bites its teeth on the victim’s body and injects poison into his body. Due to the poison, the victim becomes unconscious after going some distance and the snake smells its poison and reaches near it. Apart from this, the snake also uses its venom to protect itself from enemies.

Apart from this, the snake also uses its venom to protect itself from enemies. This is the reason that when they encounter humans, they see death and they use their powerful weapon to protect themselves. The venom of a snake is in the pouch in its mouth, the teeth attached to it are sharp and hollow and as soon as they bite someone, the venom enters the body.

Poisonous snakes are very difficult to keep in order because the venom of many species is very deadly but they do not cause much harm to humans, whereas the poison of many species is not so deadly, yet they do a lot of harm to humans due to their aggression.
