👉 A living weapon, also known as a venomous or toxic organism, is an animal or plant that produces and uses toxins as a defense mechanism against predators or competitors. These toxins can be delivered through various means, such as bites, stings, or even through the plant's structure, like the spines of a cactus or the venomous saliva of snakes. Living weapons have evolved over millions of years to effectively deter threats, making them formidable in their natural habitats. Their toxins can cause a range of harmful effects, from mild irritation to severe illness or death, showcasing the incredible adaptability and survival strategies of these organisms.
