10 MOST POISONOUS ANIMALS IN THE WORLD

1. BOX JELLYFISH

The top prize for The World Most Venomous Animal,would go to theBox Jellyfish.

It has caused at least 5,567 recorded deaths since 1954.

Their venom is among the most deadly in the world. Its toxins attack the heart, nervous system, and skin cells. And the worst part of it is that jelly box venom is so overpoweringly painful, that human victims go in shock, drown or die of heart failure before even reaching shore. Survivors experience pain weeks after the contact with box jellies..

You have virtually no chance to survive the venomous sting, unless treated immediately. After a sting, vinegar should be applied for a minimum of 30 seconds. Vinegar has acetic acid, which disables the box jellys nematocysts that have not yet discharged into the bloodstream (though it will not alleviate the pain). Wearing panty hose while swimming is also a good prevention measure since it can prevent jellies from being able to harm your legs.

Jelly box can be found in the waters around Asia and Australia.

2. KING COBRA

The King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) is the world’s longest venomous snake - growing up to 5.6 m (18.5 ft) in length.

Ophiophagus, literally means snake-eater as it eats other snakes.. One single bite of this deadly snake can easily kill a human.

This snake is even capable of killing a full-grown Asian Elephant within 3 hours if the larger animal is bitten in a vulnerable area such as the trunk.

Its venom is not as toxic as other venomous snakes, but King Cobra is capable of injecting 5 times more venom than black mamba and can result in mortality up to 5 times faster than that of the black mamba. It is quite widespread, ranging across South and South-east Asia, living in dense highland forests.


3.MARBLED CONE SNAIL

This little beautiful looking Marbled Cone snail can be as deadly as any other animal on this list.

One drop of its venom is so powerful that it can kill more than 20 humans.

If you ever happen to be in warm salt water environment (where these snails are often found) and see it, dont even think of picking it up.

Of course, the true purpose of its venom is to catch its prey.

Symptoms of a cone snail sting can start immediately or can be delayed in onset for days.

It results in intense pain, swelling, numbness and tingling. Severe cases involve muscle paralysis, vision changes and breathing failure.

There is no antivenom. However, only about 30 human deaths have been recorded from cone snail envenomation.

4. BLUE-RINGED OCTOPUS

The Blue-Ringed Octopus is very small, only the size of a golf ball, but its venom is so powerful that can kill a human. Actually it carries enough poison to kill 26 adult humans within minutes, and there is no antidote. They are currently recognized as one of the world’s most venomous animals.

Its painless bite may seem harmless, but the deadly neurotoxins begin working immediately resulting in muscular weakness, numbness, followed by a cessation and breathing and ultimately death.

They can be found in tide pools in the Pacific Ocean, from Japan to Australia.


5.DEATH STALKER SCORPION

Contrarily to the popular belief most of the scorpions are relatively harmless to humans as stings produce only local effects (pain, numbness or swelling). However, the Death Starker Scorpion is highly dangerous species because its venom is a powerful cocktail of neurotoxins which causes an intense and unbearable pain, then fever, followed by coma, convulsions, paralysis and death. Fortunately, while a sting from this scorpion is extremely painful, it would be unlikely to kill a healthy, adult human. Young children, the old, or infirm (with a heart condition) are at the biggest risk.

Death stalker scorpions are spread in North Africa and Middle East.

6. STONEFISH

Maybe Stonefish would never win a beauty contest, but it would definitely win the top prize for being The World Most Venomous Fish.

Its venom causes such a severe pain that the victims of its sting want the affected limb to be amputated. It is described as the worst pain known to man.

It is accompanied with possible shock, paralysis, and tissue death. If not given medical attention within a couple of hours It can be fatal to humans.

Stonefish stores its toxins in gruesome-looking spines that are designed to hurt would-be predators.

Stonefish mostly live above the tropic of Capricorn, often found in the shallow tropical marine waters of the Pacific and Indian oceans, ranging from the Red Sea to the Queensland Great Barrier Reef.


7. THE BRAZILIAN WANDERING SPIDER

The Brazilian Wandering Spider (Phoneutria) or banana spider appears in the Guinness Book of World Records 2007 for the most venomous spider and is the spider responsible for most human deaths.

This spider is believed to have the most potent neurotoxic venom of any living spider. Only 0.006mg (0.00000021oz) is sufficient to kill a mouse.

They are also so dangerous because of their wandering nature.

They often hide during daytime in highly populated areas inside houses, clothes, boots, and cars.

Its venomous bite causes not only intense pain, the venom of the spider can also cause priapism - uncomfortable erections lasting for many hours that lead to impotence.


8. INLAND TAIPAN

The prize for The World’s Most Venomous Snake goes to the Inland Taipan of Australia.

Just a single bite from this snake contains enough venom to kill 100 human adults or an army of 250,000 mice.

Its venom is at least 200 - 400 times more toxic than a common cobra.

The Inland Taiwans extremely neurotoxic venom can kill an adult human in as little as 45 minutes.

Fortunately this snake is very shy and there have been no documented human fatalities (all known bites were treated with antivenin).


9. POISON DART FROG

If you ever happen to be running through the rain forests somewhere in Central or South America, do not ever pick up beautiful and colorful frogs - it can be the Poison Dart Frog.

This frog is probably the most poisonous animal on earth.

The 2 inch long (5cm) golden poison dart frog has enough venom to kill 10 adult humans or 20,000 mice.

Only 2 micrograms of this lethal toxin (the amount that fits on the head of a pin) is capable of killing a human or other large mammal.

They are called dart frogs because indigenous Amerindians use of their toxic secretions to poison the tips of their blow-darts.

Poison dart frogs keep their poison in their skins and will sicken or kill anybody who touches or eats it.

10. PUFFER FISH

Puffer Fish are the second most poisonous vertebrate on earth (the first one is golden dart Frog).

The meat of some species is a delicacy in both Japan (as fugu) and Korea (as bok-uh) but the problem is that the skin and certain organs of many puffer fish are very poisonous to humans.

This puffy fish produce rapid and violent death..Puffers poisoning causes deadening of the tongue and lips, dizziness, vomiting, rapid heart rate, difficulty breathing, and muscle paralysis. Victims die from suffocation as diaphragm muscles are paralyzed.

Most of the victims die after four to 24 hours.

There is no known antidote, Most deaths from fugu happen when untrained people catch and prepare the fish.

Statistics show that there were 20 to 44 incidents of fugu poisoning per year between 1996 and 2006 in all of Japan and up to six incidents per year led to death.

Since Fugus poison can cause near instantaneous death, only licensed chefs are allowed to prepare it.

Siapakah Ainul Mardiah?

SIAPA AINUL MARDIAH? Namanya membawa maksud “Mata yang diredhai”. Pandangannya jatuh umpama pelangi. Susuknya indah, jauh lebih sempurna dari segala wanita di dunia. Kecantikannya bukan bayangan manusia…Cuma untuk memilikinya, perlu menitiskan darah sebagai syuhada! Itulah dia ‘Ainul Mardhiah. Bidadari yang paling cantik di kalangan bidadari lain di syurga. Suatu pagi di bulan Ramadhan, Rasulullah bersabda kepada pengikutnya dan para sahabat. “Barangsiapa yang keluar ke jalan Allah pada hari ini dan tiba-tiba syahid, maka dia akan dijanjikan seorang bidadari tercantik di syurga, Ainul Mardhiah” Mendengar berita itu, seorang sahabat yang sangat muda usianya merasa teruja. Ingin ditanya tentang bidadari tersebut pada Rasululullah, tapi dia merasa malu.Sebelum keluar berperang, mereka tidur dan pemuda itu bermimpi. Dia bermimpi bertemu dengan seorang yang berpakaian bersih lagi cantik. Lalu ditanya, apakah namanya tempat ini. “Inilah syurga” jawab lelaki itu. Lalu dia menyatakan hasratnya ingin berjumpa Ainul Mardhiah. Setelah diberitahu, dia berjalan dan berjumpa pula dengan seorang wanita yang kecantikannya tiada di dunia. Pemuda itu memberi salam dan bertanya “Andakah Ainul Mardhiah?” Jawab wanita rupawan itu, “Bukan, saya hanya khadamnya.” Setelah itu, dia memasuki sebuah mahligai indah tidak terperi dan terjumpa seorang wanita yang lebih cantik dari tadi. Tapi apabila ditanya, wanita itu ternyata hanya khadam Ainul Mardhiah. Sampailah dia menaiki anak-anak tangga mahligai permata, dia menemui seorang perempuan yang sangat cantik paras dan susuknya. Malahan berkali ganda lebih cantik dari dua wanita tadi. Wanita itu tersenyum sambil berkata “Akulah Ainul Mardhiah, aku diciptakan untukmu” Sebaik saja dia ingin mendekati wanita itu, Ainul Mardhiah melarang dan berkata “Jangan, jangan kau dekati aku kerana engkau belum syahid lagi!” Serentak itu, pemuda tadi terbangun. Sebelum berangkat ke medan perang, dia menceritakan mimpi aneh itu pada salah seorang sahabat. Pesannya, “Jangan ceritakan pada Rasulullah sehingga aku menemui syahid.” Ditakdirkan Allah SWT, pemuda itu gugur syahid. Petangnya, sahabat tadi menceritakan kepada Rasulullah tentang segalanya. Dan Rasulullah berkata “Benar, segalanya benar dan kini pemuda itu sedang menunggu waktu berbuka di dalam syurga ditemani Ainul Mardhiahnya.” Subhanallah!

A BASKET CASE

An old American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern Kentucky with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Quraan .

His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could. One day the grandson asked, "Papa, I try to read the Quraan just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Quraan do?"

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water." The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.

The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to watch the boy try again.

At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house.

The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty.

Out of breath, he said, "See Papa, it's useless!"

"So you think it is useless?" The old man said, "Look at the basket."

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out.

"Son, that's what happens when you read the Quraan. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out. That is the work of Allah in our lives."

In fact, nothing to describe. Looking for hot dogs and quail eggs. If the sausages are long, you can do with chicken eggs.
  • Sausages cut in half lengthwise, not reaching the end. Remove the heart-shaped seal skewer.




Sauté in butter with one hand. Flip to another drive in the heart of each egg. Broil until the readiness of all whom they love, we can cover. Do not forget the salt.

Kanak-kanak ini menyusu terus dari lembu

Kaok Roka: Seorang lelaki tua di Kemboja menyatakan, cucunya menyusu dengan seekor lembu sejak orangtuanya pergi ke Thailand untuk mencari nafkah.


Um Oeung berkata, cucunya yang berusia 20 bulan, Tha Sophat mulai menyusu dengan lembu pada Julai lalu, setelah Sophat melihat anak lembu menyusui ibunya.

Pada awalnya, Oeung menghalang cucunya, namun lama kelamaan datuknya itu menyerah kalah ketika cucunya itu memberontak. Sophat pun menyusu kepada lembu selama satu atau dua kali sehari. Demikian seperti dipetik dari Associated Press, pada 10 September.




Sophat hidup bersama datuknya di Provinsi Siem Reap yang terletak di bahagian utara Kamboja semenjak orangtuanya pergi ke Thailand untuk mencari pekerjaan.

Oeung menyatakan, lembu tersebut tampak tidak keberatan ketika Sophat menyusu dengannya. Meski demikian Oeung sangat bimbang akan kesihatan cucunya yang menyusu dari lembu secara langsung.

Kerana di setiap susu lembu yang belum dimasak tentunya mengandungi bakteria.
