The animal that has has the most potent posion is a frog. They are called dart posion frogs and you can find them in Central and South America. The poison is produced in glands and is secreted onto their skin, 2/10 of a microgram is lethal for humans if it gets into the bloodstream, so please, don't go licking frogs trying to find your prince. However, that's only if you're considering vertebrates. The Box Jellyfish (which isn't a jellyfish by the way) has by far the most deadly - and also one of the most painful - poisons. It has been reported that it is so painful that victims continue to scream after losing consciousness.

Chironex fleckeri, a species of box jellyfish, is widely considered the most venomous animal. Its sting is capable of killing sixty adults in just three minutes.

Also known by the names marine stinger or sea wasp, it is found off the Northern coast of Australia.

There are many things to determine when you talk about the toxicity of different animals. Different people react in different ways for the most part. The most venomous animal should be listed into categories For example: The most venomous fish is the stone fish. The thing about that is, is that it is passively venomous, meaning that it uses it's venom in defense, not to attack. In fact, it has the same venom as the duck billed platypus, which is not lethal, it just causes massive pain and swelling. Stonustoxin. Now, actively venomous animals, such as snakes and Spiders use their venom to kill or subdue prey. The most venomous snake is arguably the banded sea snake. It has the most toxic venom; however, it doesn't bite often, isn't aggressive, and hard to come across. The most venomous spider is the male Sydney funnel web spider. It has Attraxotoxin that speeds up the organs functions and causes the body to overdrive itself to death. Overall though, the most venomous animal, that has been known to kill anyone of any shape, size, or age, is the BOX JELLYFISH. Due to it's cardiotoxin, that attacks the heart directly through the blood stream, and it's stinging celled organisms, nematysits, it is considered the most lethal venomous animal. Understand that venomous animals INJECT venom through spurs, fangs, stingers, barbs, etc... Poisonous animals have toxins that must be absorbed, ingested or inhaled.

the box jellyfish

the cobra isnt even the most venomous snake the belchers sea snake is. the cobra does not have a highly potent venom its only dangerous becayse it injects alot of venom. but the belchers sea snake cant even compare to the box jellyfish. htere is no creature or artificial poison on earth more deadly than it's venom. Tree frog or Box jelly fish

Chironex fleckeri, also known as the Box jellyfish, or Sea Wasp IS the most venomous organism on the planet. The Frog that you're talking about is propably the Golden Dart Frog. Well, the thing is that Frogs don't use venom, they use Batracitoxins, a form of poison. Even though people say that poison and venom are exactly the same, they are not; they are almost completely different.
The Box Jellyfish, Chironex fleckeri. The most poisonous animal is the golden frog, Phyllobates terribilis.
The Box Jellyfish which is the most venomous so much venom it can kill you in 1 min.

Have a look at

http://www.destination-scuba.com/Poisonous-fish.html

There are specific pages which give good information on various venomous sea creatures which are very poisonous. The Box Jelly fish doesnt necessarily kill you in one minute unless the pain of being stung causes you to either have a heart attack or drown, nevertheless it is exceptionally dangerous - as described in this site.

Others like the Stonefish, Cone shell are also covered including what to do if you happen to have the misfortune of coming into contact with them.
