I'd be a Komodo Dragon mixed with Godzilla.

-AC

Black Widow.

A giant spider.

Second choice would be a hunter hornet.

scorpion

There is a difference between poisonous and venomous. Poison is secreted through the skin; venom is injected with fangs, spines, stingers, and the like. They're often used interchangably, but it just bugs me.
And the Komodo dragon is techinically neither poisonous nor venomous; Komodo's have thousands upon thousands of bacteria living in their saliva, and the bacteria are the harmful creatures. It is a very symbiotic relationship.

Poisonous: Golden Poison Dart/Arrow frog: death through cardiac arrest. Then again, they don't produce their toxins themselves either...
Venomous: Inland Taipan, which, for all non-venomous snake freaks out there, is the most venomous and deadly of all the terrestrial snakes. Glorious death by asphyxiation due to respiratory paralysis (i.e. You can't breathe so you die). Barring that, a box jellyfish, undoubtubly the most venomous animal, but no where near as interesting to me as the taipan.

Thank you for drowning us in your veritable avalanche of intellect, ma'am.

Truly sorry. I'm not very good at helping that. The fresh snow was provided, however...

You should really check him out sometime, see what I mean.

I've seen him.

I was wondering why people were putting snakes and such in there when it said poisonous and not venomous. Chalk it up to general misknowledge.

Boxjellyfish would still be a fun thing to be. Not much in the way of deep thoughts, but stinging people would be amusing.

I'd like to try out a Poisonous Salamander. When a frog eats them, the poison that are secreted through their skin stiffens the frog and kills it and then the salamander crawls out of the frog after being eaten...SWEET!

No, really though, sounds interesting.

is it comprehensible.....

The box jellyfish doesn't have a brain. They follow the current. There would be no deciding whether to sting or not; it would just happen.

Yay, another backfire to add to the ever-expanding list.

There's no way you could have know that I'd seen Alpha Centauri; there's no way that backfire could have been prevented.

I considered that as well after Vinny mentioned it, but I decided to stick with venom, and deadly lots of it.

You're exactly like AOR in that respect; my lack of smilies, or the fact that I rarely ever use them, seems to aggravate him.

It makes you look less uptight, more attractive.

Meh. I'm tired and working on an english paper that's due tomorrow. I've got reasons to be uptight tonight. -___-'

How old are you?

Give me a reason to tell you and I might. Besides, the fact that I'm working on an english paper tells you nothing about my age except that I'm still in school. I could be in first grade or I could be in my senior year in college, depending on what I was majoring in.

I thought you were a professor. My reason for you letting me know?


"Curiosity is not a sin".



Best I could do.

True, very true; it's not a sin.
I'm not a professor. I tend to be very...formal when I'm uptight and stressed out.

Besides, this is me:

True, oh well.

Smilies are evil. They should be burned alive along with their followers.

And back on topic, I was assuming for the sake of argument that I could be a quasi-sentient jellyfish. I know that's like physically impossible, but so is becoming one. I'm not going to get totally realistic in a "What kind of poisonous creature" thread, of course.

I was gonna' say that! Cause cobras have the most potent poison.

But I'd probably be a rattlesnake, they give you a warning by ratteling and the louder it is, the more aggarvated they are, before finnaly they just get pissed off and take a bite out of you.

Also when people think of me they'll think of Stone Cold Steve Austin's theme music. That's worth it right there.

This Dawson girl is my favorite '06er.

Brown snake. the most lethal land venom on Earth.

Hack, you're incorrect, as are you, Valharu. The Inland Taipan is the most venomous terrestrial snake, as stated on page two.



Thank you Sorgo.

Holy mother f*cking hugeness shock

You'd be an enormous lizard with terrible breath.

In addition to this; Dawson is, undeniably, a very promising new member.

I'd be Pikachu

The Inland Taipan is also known as the Fierce Snake.

I'm assuming you're referring to the venomous Brown snake here.
There are three species of Brown Snake, Pseudonaja textilis, Pseudonaja affinis, and Pseudonaj nauchalis, if I'm not mistaken. All are native to Australia and do cause most snake-bite related deaths in that country.

However, the Inland Taipan's scientific name is Oxyuranus microlepidotus; they are not even in the same genus.

Because I train them to attack people I dont like

Poison

I'd probably be a Black Widow spider.

The female will sometimes eat the smaller male after mating. She will lay 300-400 eggs. The spiderlings (baby spiders) are not poisonous but they are cannibals, eating each other.

Hardcore

oh woops my bad. sorry bout that
Did you know that some spider males bring food to apease the female? it will make the female full and not feel hungry and eat the smaller male

No problem, glad I didn't offend you with my obsessive nature

obsessive?! crazy

Yeah, not the crazy sort

oh
























hyper

Screw you mister

She's not crazy and obsessed, she's just focused a whole lot.

That may be true. But down under the brown is also called the inland Taipan because it lives inland and is a taipan. Go figure.
And it is by far the most venomous land snake on the planet.

Ceterum censeo OTF esse delendam.

what kind?

Those ones with the stinger, I'd imagine.

-AC

what is the scientific name!

Bloodius painfulias

hey! thats not a real species!

It is if you've been bitten by one

Scorpionidae and Buthidae are the ones with the most amounts of species per genus.

15/230 and 80/700 approx respectively.

So I'd guess one of those.

-AC

Nice...

Androctonus crassicauda.


Ceterum censeo OTF esse delendam.

Hmm...are "Alien" poisonous?.....

Fat-tailed Scorpion eh? Nice choice, real nice like.

Death by a bullant. (admittedly an old lady). 30min

Yes but I'm a snake lover. I'm scared of spiders though. *Runs away*. Actually I'm slowly but gradually trying to overcome my fear of spiders by myself. I found myself, last semester in school when a boy brought in a large red door spider in a jar, I found myself more fascinated than scared, surprisingly.

Venomous - Oxyuranus microlepidotus (Inland Taipan)

Poisonous - Poison Arrow(Dart) Frog

Both from central America... the Inland Taipan is the most venomous of snakes... and the Poison Arrow Frog looks cool and it probably the most poisonous creature in the world..

(remember poisonous and venomous are different )

No, you shouldn't be concerned. I've never even handled a venomous snake, let alone encouraged it to attack someone.. Well, there was that copperhead...
