Interesting article about Palytoxin here:

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/no...tore-near-you/


And this quote underneath got me thinking about having Dino's lol

"I should add *naturally occurring* poison. But the number one is maitotoxin, produced by a marine dinoflagellate (type of plankton) called Gambierdiscus toxicus. It has an LD50 of 50ng/kg, making it six times more potent than palytoxin."
