TED-Ed: Poison vs. venom: What's the difference? - Rose Eveleth

Would you rather be bitten by a venomous rattlesnake or touch a poisonous dart frog? While both of these animals are capable of doing some serious damage to the human body, they deliver their dangerous toxins in different ways. Rose Eveleth sheds light on the distinction between poison and venom (and why you shouldn't treat either one like you've seen in the movies). Lesson by Rose Eveleth, animation by TED-Ed.
