Anthrax poisoning is a serious infectious disease that can affect humans and animals. It is caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis and can be contracted through contact with infected animals or contaminated animal products. Symptoms of anthrax poisoning can vary depending on how the disease was contracted, but it can be fatal if not treated promptly.

Rigor mortis is dependent on ATP in order for it to occur. However the anthrax bacilli have a toxin called edema factor or calmodulin dependent adenylate cyclase, which is a toxin that inhibits the stiffening of muscles by constantly stimulating the release of cAMP, so that the cAMP level in body is never low. Thus even after death it supplies the muscles with adequate cAMP to be relaxed, even after a prolonged period.
Anthrax is really a bunch of spores of a microbe called bacillus anthracis. These spores are very resistent to drying out and harsh environmental conditions, making them survive for long times. Once these spores settle and grow into the bacterium, this bacterium releases an anthrax toxin that can cause life threatening pneumonia if the bacterium/spores were inhaled and settled in your lung.
That depends on what substance you decided to share. For example, spoiled milk would take a lot more than botulinum toxin or anthrax.
bacterial agressins are molecules that the bacteria "shoot" at phagocytic molecules. Some agressin molecules include streptolysin O, leukocidin (staphylococcus), extoxin A, adenylate cyclase, and anthrax toxin EF
what is the history on the anthrax disease
The Anthrax was created in 1982.

Anthrax is not considered to be contagious from person to person. It is primarily acquired through contact with infected animals or their products.
