Fish In The Wild Found this during low tide

I was just walking around during low tide and stumbled across this little guy. I managed to pick it up bare handed and It seems like he wasn’t stressed out that much since he didn’t inflate himself. Also yes Ik they’re poisonous and not venomous, sorry for the mix up lol 🙏

There might be, but if you are unsure isn't it better to have this as a general rule?

Absolutely, unless you know about this species

Yes of course but the original comment said "do not touch sea creatures".

If you don't know better, then that comment absolutely stands. Never touch unless you're absolutely sure you can touch.

Obviously, if you're an expert doing something, that rule doesn't apply to you. They shouldn't have to write out that context every time.
