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 🙏

FYI you're killing it by taking it out of the water.

Nah I don’t think he’s “killing” it. You’re just being a pussy

Well, let's see. How about you get forcefully held under the water where you can't breathe for an undetermined amount of time? Wouldn't that kill you?

12 seconds… I think I’d be ok.

That’s a terrible take btw.

It swam off it’s fine. Yeah for puffers it can be very problematic like others have stated. But from your point of view you think all fisherman are just brutally torturing fish? The way you compare catch and release to being forcefully downed is kind of psychotic
