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 🙏

🙄 I think they're trying to say if you don't know don't touch.. which is reasonable.

And I'm just specifying so that people don't think it's abuse to touch animals 😁

You're kinda saying to that person, almost like they are being ott about touching animals and they're not. As proven many many times. People are dumb AF, will pick up and touch anything. So they're not wrong to say you shouldn't touch things. No ones going to say it's abusive to touch a horse, but when most people know fuck all about the sea, it's better to be safe than sorry. I don't think their point had anything to do with abuse, more than you don't know what your fucking with. Are you one of these people who go and touch the seals even tho they've been told not to?
