World’s deadliest Animal ?

We might have seen many animals, but not all are friendly looking. There’s a world’s deadliest animal and it is known as the Sea Wasp. It has long tentacles which has millions of small stings that can inject venom. This venom is highly toxic and could kill anyone in few minutes when not given immediate medical attention.


The sea wasp is a colourless creature which has a bell shaped body. A sea wasp might have as many as 50 tentacles and each tentacle might have 1m stinging cells. Tentacles are for the purpose of searching for food and mainly for the defense mechanisms.


Scientists have till date not been able to find a complete cure for the wasp’s venom. Hence one needs to be really careful that they never go near these wasps.
