    Default World's Only Venomous Mammal

    The only mammal that injects venom through it's teeth.

    Close encounter with a bizarre venomous beast w/VIDEOS

    Conservationists are in the Dominican Republic to save one of the world's strangest and most ancient mammals - the Hispaniolan solenodon.

    As the bag is opened, a pungent, musty smell - the solenodon's signature scent - seeps out.

    Thick gloves are donned, essential for protection against the solenodon's most ancient feature - it is the only mammal in the world that can inject venom through its teeth.
    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    All you need is a body built for discipline and a mind that can justify so much apparent self-abuse.

    platypuses are venomous.
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    This is the only mammal that can inject venom through a bite. A platypus has a spur on it's foot that injects the venom.

    The beagles would have a field day with that thing. It's definately a possum.
