There is such a plant in Australia that has an ordinary surface but contains highly toxicity and can make people "death" for two hours after use.
Yes, that's right.
In history, some people used its leaves to wipe their butt, and ended up shooting themselves.
But the British want to use it as a chemical weapon. Why?
What kind of plant is it?
Its name is also ordinary - Golden Piece Tree .
is rich in northeastern Australia, Moluca Islands and Indonesia.
is not only the special of the 36 species of the genus genus , but also the most special one in the genus 47 of the Urticaceae family , it is also the most special one. It is recognized as one of the most poisonous trees in the world.
The whole tree is covered with small burrs like needles. If you touch the golden bark tree gently, the small burrs will penetrate the skin and release toxins. Their toxicity can poison a strong horse.
is a fatal threat to any creature.
Once this toxin enters the human body, it will continuously attack the painful nerves, making people feel a burning sensation like an electric shock, and there is a possibility of recurrence in a few years.
1941 A soldier accidentally fell on a golden bark tree when he passed Queensland . was heartbroken and bit his nerves in pain, making him unable to think, and even his whole body was approaching a "crazy state".
In order to make him better heal, he had to tie him up and it was not until three weeks to get through the difficulties.
And the other one was not that lucky. He used the golden tree to wipe his butt directly. In an instant, his anus came to a "hot pain", and he wanted to cut off his butt. In the end, he couldn't stand the pain and shot to end his life.
1968 After hearing about this, the UK actually considered researching the golden bark tree and manufacturing chemical weapons used in war.
However, due to insufficient materials and information, although the specimen was made, it was not studied later.
Why is the golden bark tree so powerful?
This also comes from its thorns.
Through research, scientists found that each thorn in the golden bark tree consists of three parts.
consists of three parts: tip, shaft and bulb .
After a subtle touch, the tip of the burr will break away and pierce into the surface of the touching object. Not only are their burrs small, but they are also very penetrating.
Not only can you not touch it, you can't be very close to it.
According to relevant personnel, once
stays by its side for 20 minutes, the shed burrs will be sucked into the nasal cavity. At first you may only sneeze, and diffuse pain will occur in the nasal cavity within three hours, and symptoms such as acute sore throat will occur after 26 hours, followed by bleeding and suppuration in the nasal cavity, which will eventually cause serious respiratory damage.
Who is the natural enemy of the golden bark tree?
is an Australian native bird, insect and mammal. For example: native Australian mammals, such as green ring-tailed marten and marsh kangaroo.
They eat almost three golden-bark branches every day, while some birds eat another fruit on the golden-bark leaves - thorn berry.
is just to solve their own food and clothing problems, but the magic is that they will not be hurt by the golden-skin leaves at all. This is true for
.
Here scientists have discovered that these animals themselves, has secreted substances that can decompose toxins in gold bark leaves. so don't worry that small animals will get poisoned if they eat it.
Then, the last question is here!
Will the British make "chemical weapons" through the golden bark tree?
I think the thorns of the golden bark tree are poisonous and are just to better protect themselves. Because plants also understand one thing: if you don’t work hard to “upgrade and fight monsters”, you will be eliminated by the world.
is like fritillaria. In order to avoid human pursuit, it has developed a "camouflage technique".
In fact, the evolution of species is irreversible, that is, species cannot degenerate into species of the past, once species disappear, they cannot reproduce, and the same is true for the golden bark tree.
If the British successfully use the Golden Bark Tree to study chemical weapons, they will face huge harm.
Do you still remember Viex (VX) nerve gas?
It is one of the deadliest chemical weapons. is a colorless and odorless oily liquid that turns into a gas once it is exposed to oxygen .
Human skin contact or inhalation will lead to poisoning, and headache and nausea are the main symptom of infection with this poisonous gas.
VX poison gas can cause central nervous system disorders, respiratory arrest, and ultimately death. VX is a typical persistent poison with a killing duration of several hours to several days and nights.
So we don’t want to develop any extremely lethal chemical weapons again, because they are too destructive.
But we have to admit that their success can better protect their country.
Here, what I want to say is that is not all ordinary plants, or animals, are harmless. When touching , you must ensure your own safety!
