Crown cone
The crown cone is a sea snail that lives in warm western Atlantic waters. It is a predator, and its sting can injure or kill people, so it is one to treat with great care. It is known to science for its unusually complex venom.1

Its venom contains a conotoxin called reg2a, which is made of 16 amino acids. It is the most potent known blocker of acetylcholine receptors in the vertebrate brain, a receptor type with a very high affinity for nicotine. The venom also blocks calcium receptors in sensory nerve cells, which stops nerve impulses from travelling along the nerve.1
