Poison vs. Venom These terms are often used interchangeably, but they actually have very different meanings. It is the delivery method that distinguishes one from the other. Poison is absorbed or ingested; a poisonous animal can only deliver toxic chemicals if another animal touches or eats it. Venom, on the other hand, is always injected. Poison Dart Frog Dendrobates azureus These frogs secrete a toxic substance from their skin, causing sickness or even death to animals that touch or eat them. But the frogs have no way to inject their toxins: they're poisonous, not venomous. But what we're talking about here are the venomous creatures; those whose bodies manufacture toxins that can be rubbed off, ingested (swallowed), or injected into another, causing severe illness or death. Just to name a few, there's the poison dart frogs of the Costa Rican jungles, stonefish, cone shells, the black mamba snake, and even a tiny blue octopus that lives in Australian waters. When creatures are rated for the "deadliness factor" there's a couple of measures that are taken into account: 1) How many people an ounce of the creature's venom can kill 2) How long it takes you to die from the venom after being bitten, stung, or stuck In both cases the grand prize winner and world-record holder is the creature known as the sea wasp, or marine stinger. The name sea wasp is misleading because the creature isn't actually a wasp or insect at all. Most Venomous Animal

A single sea wasp (a kind of jellyfish with 60 tentacles, each 15 feet long) has enough venom to kill 60 adult humans.
