Inland Taipan (O. microlepidotus)

The inland taipan is the world's most venomous snake. In one drop of inland taipan veneom is enough to kill 200,000 mice. That's more than twice the amount of its cousin the coastal taipan and more than seventy-five times that of the dimond back rattle snake. The inland taipan lives in the Australian outback which explains why there are so few recorded deaths of people dying from its deadly veneom. The inland taipan's diet consists of mice, rats, and other small mammals and it grows to 12ft in length. Even as deadly as it sounds very few people have even seen the inland taipan because of where it lives and because of its shy nature.
