Yeah, what Homer said.
Thread title is "most poisonous" but article is about "most dangerous".
Most dangerous is not necessarily most venomous.
Inland Taipan (or Fierce Snake) may have the most toxic venom but try finding one to get bitten by!
I get a bit annoyed by wild claims based on poorly defined criteria.
Have to agree here as well with you gents.
Most poisonous goes to the inland taipan - by far!
The eastern brown has far larger fangs, produces far more venom & is very aggressive compared to the former, it is the most dangerous snake in Oz - two entirely different categories altogether.
If you leave them alone they normally won't worry you, they get out of your way normally.
Best to have long trousers on if in dense grass.
