Hello all.
​
First time posting here. I have been studying creation/evolution for about 9 months now. On the web and by reading various books.
​
Now to my question. I did some searching on here and have not been able to find how organisms evolved poison. There are different species with poison and different types of poison. From snakes, bees wasp, spiders, jellyfish and platypus to name a few. Poisons that effect respiratory, nervous or flesh eating. Does anyone know how these might have evolved?
​
Thank you for your time.
