What is the worlds most deadlist jellyfish?

Answer 1

The smallest deadliest jellyfish is the Malo Kingi Jellyfish which is a type of Irukandji Jellyfish. It inhabits the waters of Northern Australia and is no larger than an adults fingernail making them impossible to see in the water. There are two types of Irukandji Jellyfish the Malo Kingi and the Carukia Barnesi. If these jellies don't kill you they will at least leave you with a nasty case of Irukandji syndrome which results in such symptoms as headaches, nausea, restlessness, sweating, vomiting, high heart rate and blood pressure, not to mention severe back pains, muscle cramps, kidney pains and an intense skin burning sensation.

Answer 2

There has been 68 recorded deaths in Australia since 1883. The US has recorded 3 deaths from jellyfish. Asia has reported that about a dozen deaths have occurred. The rest of the Indo Pacific area does not require death certificates, but presumably there have been about as many deaths from jellyfish as Australia. These facts mean that less than 2 people die from jellyfish envonmation per year.

In the US alone, cows kill about 20 people a year. Dogs kill about 28 people a year. Other mammals kill 52 people per year. Bees, wasps, and hornets kill 58 people per year. Auto accidents kill 33,000 people per year.

On the scale of dangerous animals, jellyfish barely register a blip.
