On a Mission: Poisonous Killers

Summary Steve, who physically exposed himself to repeated sting risks throughout the series, compares some killer species with redoubted poisons, notably from four important families. With scorpions, big pincers mean mild venom, unlike comparatively big darts. Serpents are his favorites, with various modes of toxin use. Spiders are by far the most abundant poisonous killers. Finally insects, starring ants and a sinister wasp.
