Answer:
But inside this probing tube, called a proboscis, the cone snail has a long-range weapon-a harpoon. Made of a modified tooth, the harpoon can be launched by a quick muscular contraction. Fish-hunting snails are particularly dangerous, with venom strong enough to kill a human. This harpoon is cocked and loaded.

Cone snails live in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, the Caribbean and Red Seas, and along the coast of Florida. They are not aggressive. The sting usually occurs when divers in deep reef waters handle the snails..
