For its size the most poisonous animal in the world is the marine cone snail. It lives in the indian and pacific oceans near Australia, and after it shoots its poisonous detachable harpoon at you, you will die in the time it takes to smoke a cigarette.
The tiny South American 'poison arrow frogs' produce lethal poison on their skin. Other candidates for most poisonous would be the box jellyfish, the marbled-cone snail, and the Brazilian wandering spider.
There are many poisonous / venomous animals, which depending on the dose could prove injurious or fatal to humans. They include:
- Blue-ringed octopus
- Sea snakes such as the yellow-bellied sea snake
- Snakes such as the black snake, rattle-snake, cobras, and mambas
- Fish such as scorpion fish, puffer fish, and stonefish
- Jellyfish such as the Portuguese man-o-war
- Spiders such as the black widow and brown recluse
- Mexican beaded lizard
- Scorpions
- African bees
- Lonomia moth (caterpillars)
- even the male platypus
The poison arrow frog and certain salamanders would have to top most people's list of "The World's Most Poisonous Animals." - Two micrograms of toxin from the poison arrow frog is enough to kill a human. A "microgram" is a very small amount. The ink in the period at the end of this sentence (if it were printed) will weigh around six micrograms.
* Phyllobates terribillis, otherwise known as the Golden Dart Frog, is the the most toxic of all the Poison Dart Frogs: while most of these toxic frogs use tetrodotoxin, the Golden Dart Frog uses batrachotoxin, a toxin eleven-times more potent than Hydrogen Sulfite.
Probably the tiny jellyfish realted to the box jelly called Irukandji. They are so small you really can't see them in the water under normal conditions. And if you make contact with them, your symptoms don't present until later - when the poison is making its way through your bloodstream. Pound for pound, there is almost certainly nothing more deadly than this little guy. Wikipedia has more information, and in the best tradition of Wikianswers, we've already provided a link for you.

The most poisonous animal is the box jellyfish, which can deliver a venomous sting that is potentially deadly to humans. Other highly poisonous animals include the golden poison frog, pufferfish, and the inland taipan snake.
One of the Most poisonous animals is the Brittle-Sea Star. This is a question of much debate as certain animals with extremely toxic poison deliver only a small amount when some with lesser poisons deliver many times a necessary quantity.
If the snake was poisonous no but if it's not poisonous then it's fine

The longest venomous snake in the world is the King Cobra, with one specimen reaching over 18.5 feet long. Several other venomous snakes - such as the bushmaster, eastern diamondback rattlesnake, or gaboon viper - may reach a greater weight than the king cobra even though they are much shorter. The appropriate word to use is "venomous", not "poisonous", because venom refers to a toxin that is injected by the animal, whereas poisonous animals are those who spread their toxin by being ingested or through contact with the skin.
