Plants And Animals That We Shouldn't Ever Touch

58. Geographic Cone Snails

With beautiful white-and-brown markings peppering its shell, the geographic cone snail is a truly eye-catching Pacific marine animal. It’s also the most poisonous of its kind. Ah. We knew there’d be a catch. Shockingly, there’s no way to fight off the poison if you’re exposed. Instead, you’ve just got to hope that it subsides before it kills you.

Simon Keighley Wow, thanks for the warning, Bill - first I've heard of the Geographic Cone Snail.

Charles Phillips OK. Just let me have the empty shell after you check it out for me.
