Summer is coming! and despite the world financial crisis, rumor has it that you'll be traveling this summer!
If you're planning to enjoy the beach or nature in a foreign country, you might want to watch out to dangerous creatures that live there.
Here are examples of what you might just bump into:
1) The Conus, or what is so called the Cone Snail:
Be careful, this is not just like any snail that you know, people collecting colorful sea shells can easily mistake this and run into a crawling agony!
The cone snail stings you with its spear causing its neurotoxins to flow into your blood, which can kill you in 4 minutes!
Here is a video of how the Conus, or cone snail, functions:
Scary ha? So watch out!
2) The Poison Arrow Frog (poison dart frog)
Looks like a natural jewel! so colorful, and so attractive, and sometimes, so tiny.
But don't even come close to it!
You only need to touch it to get its deadly poison under your skin, and it gets there fast!
That's what they cal the "Lethal touch"
Try to be far from colored shiny frogs, they can jump to up to 2 inches.
3)The Lonomia caterpillar
They call it "The lazy clown of the insect world" , and why? i don't know! it is supposed to grow into a moth, but as a caterpillar, it has tiny but fuzzy hair , if it touches your skin, it will inject stuff that will cause your blood to break, and of course. cause you death!
Even in pictures it looks spooky! don't mistake these tiny hairs into dry leaves.
4)Sea snakes
even land snakes are scary enough, but sea snakes are even more poisonous! in my opinion, the advantage these snakes have, is that they're hard to spot!
5) Box Jellyfish
if you go to Australia, you'll run into this deadly sea creature!
Just make sure you avoid its tentacles, the younger you are, that faster you die, a very painful death.
Enjoy your vacation :)
