What animal has the fastest pulse raiser?

if u mean what animal has the fastest heart beat rate, then the answer is the Amethyst Woodstar Hummingbird because it is the smallest vertebrate around. The smaller the animal the faster the heart rate, this is because when the heart beats it gives blood to the body, if the body is large, it would take time for the blood to go around and come back and beat again, however if the body is small, in less than a second the blood may come and go several times. The proof is that a grown man's heart beat rate is at 72/min in average. While the mouse's is 400/min in average. Look at the difference in the size of the body.
