  • The Belcher sea snake 

The Belcher sea snake is the most poisonous sea species since its venom is 100 times more deadly than the most poisonous terrestrial species However, it is not dangerous to humans because it rarely bites people and does not release all its venom when it bites This means that only one quarter of all bitten humans will be poisoned Most of the people who have been bitten by this snake are fishermen who handle the fishing nets Although considered the most venomous snake in the world, this has never been officially proven
