Lonomia
- Venom: Hemotoxin
- Typical Kill Time: Less Than 15 Hours
Known as the “Assassin Caterpillar,” the Lonomia is incredibly deadly. They tend to hide out in full greenery. Since they’re mostly located near the Amazon, this is pretty much everywhere. For centuries, people never seemed to have an issue with them. All of a sudden, over 200 people died from run-ins with one of these venomous animals in one year. Then hundreds more since!
Most of these people were locals to the area or tribal people. Lonomias are easy to step or sit on, as well as grab onto accidentally. One barb can affect you, but since people hit numerous at once, their venom hits hard. A deadly Hemotoxin, the venom attacks the human body viciously. Death is possible in less than 15 hours without treatment.
