Sea Snake
Alternative names: Hydrophiinae
The Sea Snake is a species of snake that lives in the tropical waters, especially in the Indian Ocean and Western Pacific Ocean.
There are two groups of sea snakes: the true sea snake that is related to Australian terrestrial elapids and the sea krait, which is related to Asian cobras.
The sea snakes are very poisonous. The Beaked Sea Snake is the most venomous sea snake. Three drops of its venom can kill 8 people. Fortunately, they will not bite unless they will feel threatened.
Sea Kraits are one of the few sea snakes that will go ashore in order to lay eggs, while the other species will give birth in the water.
