The most Deadliest animal on Earth - The Golden Poison Frog, 34th most deadliest animal

34. Golden Poison Frog

Humans Killed Per Year: Unclear

Where They Can Be Found: Colombia

Notable Features: Bright yellow coloring

What Makes Them So Dangerous


The golden poison frog is considered one of the most toxic animals on Earth. To put it in perspective, it packs enough venom to kill 10 adults. It’s unclear how many humans have died from an encounter with a poison dart frog. But its venomous characteristics make it one of the world’s deadliest animals. 

It gets its name from the indigenous people of Colombia who tipped their darts and blowguns with its venom before hunting. For an animal to be considered poisonous, it must be toxic to eat. The golden poison frog keeps its toxins in glands beneath its skin, so any human or animal that takes a bite would be in serious trouble.

  With Mia Toretto reuniting with Dom and his crew in the upcoming Fast & Furious 9, what are the chances that her husband, Brian O'Conner also appears? With  Fast & Furious 9  bringing some notable characters from past films back, what are the chances that Brian O'Conner will also return? The long-running Universal Pictures franchise is gearing up for its ninth installment from the primary saga and given the confirmed appearance of Han, the question of whether or not Brian could also somehow be involved must also be raised.
