venom delivery systems

Venom delivery systems are specialized structures that animals use to inject venom into their prey or predators. These systems typically include glands that produce venom and a means to deliver it, such as fangs, stingers, or spurs. When triggered, the animal effectively punctures the skin or surface of its target, smoothly releasing venom through the delivery apparatus. This method allows the animal to immobilize prey, defend itself, or deter threats efficiently. Different species have evolved various adaptations, but all serve the same purpose of delivering venom precisely and effectively.
