Australia, New Guinea, and some nearby islands are host to the most venomous and fastest snake around. Thing is, they have incredible patience as they are known to lie in wait to ambush prey. Within six hours of being bitten, you’ll experience minor discomfort which then leads to paralysis and respiratory failure. However luckily, there is an antivenin available.
