The most venomous snakes in different regions of the world are usually not the ones that cause most snakebites in those regions. Therefore, they are not the most dangerous.
There are several factors which make a snake species particularly dangerous. Of course, it should have venom toxic enough to kill a human with a single bite. Adding to that, it should be common and tolerate habitat alteration. If it thrives close to humans, the chance of dangerous encounters gets high. The last important thing is the behavior of the snake species. If it’s usually nervous and ready to bite when encountered, snakebites can happen. A combination of all factors we mentioned makes a snake species very dangerous. #venomouscreatures #snake #reptiles #deadlysnakes #venomoussnake
