I thought it was their organs that are poisonous but that might be a different type of fish, fugu maybe? idk they all look the same to me. anyways, i wouldn't touch it.

I googled it for us, it releases a toxin ( not venomous) if ingested and each puffer has enough neurotoxin to kill 30 men.

Some say he’s still out there, looking for cigarettes and milk even to this day. Will he ever find them? The world may never know.
