The third most deadly snake in the world, from India, is the Russell's Viper. Death from a Russell's Viper happens in 1 to 14 days.
A Black Mamba delivers 25 times the poison needed to kill a full grown adult; statistics show that death is almost 100% (the highest of any snake) and death occurs between 15 minutes and 3 hours.
Statistics are simple on this one, the Black Mamba wins the worlds deadliest snake title.
NOTE: This is not intended to diminish the danger of any snake, all snakes are dangerous and should be respected as such.
A:
The most venomous snake on earth is the Belcher's Sea Snake (Hydrophis Belcheri) or the Faint Banded Sea Snake, some consider the Inland Taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) an/or the Beaked Sea Snake (Enhydrina schistosa) to be the most toxic, however, with recent and more accurate studies prove the Belcheri has a 100 times more toxic venom then the two above or any other snake on earth.
It has a paddle-like tail, breathes air and can hold it's breath up to 8 hours, a few milligrams of venom can kill over a thousand people.
It's habitat is a wide range in the South Pacific.
