eli5: Why do some tiny animals contain enough venom to kill thousands of humans, isn’t that just overkill?
In: 356
Its not just about quantity.
Its more like what little venom a small creature has is highly toxic/potent enough to kill even large animals.
A threat can be either small or large, and theire venom can deal with the largest ones, so it appears overkill for the small threats.
For americans, its like instead of a 9mm, you carry a desert eagle. They’re about the same size, but 1 of these packs a much bigger punch
