Venomous animals are organisms that possess a specialized gland capable of producing toxic substances, known as venom. This venom is delivered through various means, such as fangs, stingers, spines, or other specialized structures. When injected into a prey or predator, the venom can cause a range of harmful effects, including paralysis, tissue damage, and even death. Many venomous animals use their venom for hunting and defense, making them dangerous to interact with.
