July 13, 2023Australian Scolymia Coral, Ultra Toxic Apple
The Australian Scolymia Coral, also known as the Doughnut Coral, is a large polyp stony coral that is native to the waters surrounding Australia and nearby regions. It is known for its striking appearance, with a circular shape and a range of vibrant colors, including green, blue, red, and orange. While the coral itself is not toxic, there is a type of marine algae that can grow on the coral, producing a toxin known as palytoxin. Palytoxin is one of the most potent naturally occurring toxins known to science, and it can cause a range of symptoms in humans, including nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness, and heart palpitations. In some cases, exposure to palytoxin can be fatal, so it is important to exercise caution when handling or coming into contact with any marine organisms that may be contaminated with the toxin. If you suspect that you have been exposed to palytoxin, seek medical attention immediately.
