The deadly truth inside the brilliant appearance of the 'killer' snail
Marbled Cone snail possesses an extravagant appearance but is considered to be the most venomous snail on the planet, which can be deadly.
A drool of snail Marbled Cone can kill at least 10 people.
This terrible snail lives in the tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean. They often hide in some sea knights along a coral reef. Although anemones have many poisonous tentacles but certainly a bite from it cannot kill you.
However, it is completely different from the Marbled Cone snail . The eye-catching, innocent marine creature, living in a beautiful shell made from colorful brown, black and white patterns, but inside them hides a deadly secret.
Eye-catching looks hide hidden dangers.
A conical snail, like most snails, moves slowly. However, its attack is extremely fast and powerful. They use a sophisticated detection system to find prey. Snails eat fish, seaworms or other snails if the source of food is scarce.
Divers are afraid to face Marbled Cone snails. They are very beautiful, like other normal snail shells, but when the attack is very fast and even with diving gloves, the snail's hose can still penetrate. A few microliter of the toxin in the snail's range is strong enough to kill at least 10 people.
When toxins enter your system, you may not feel symptoms for a few minutes or days. The bite does not hurt, you may feel numb or tingling. However, then your whole body may shudder, eyes become blurry and stop breathing after only a few hours.
