How scary is the Rose Poison Flycatcher and what happens if you accidentally step on it? It can cause poisoning, pain, and even death.

The Rose Poison Flycatcher, sounds like a beautiful name, but it's not beautiful on the outside or the inside. The surface has many bumps like a toad, and the eyes grow on the back, so you can't even find them unless you look closely. It also has another name Stonefish, which is ugly on the outside but has thorns like roses, and the thorns are highly poisonous, and it is hard to distinguish it from a stone when it doesn't move, so it has these two names. Because of its stone-like appearance is very confusing, and its color is basically the same as the color of the gravel under the water, it is the underwater ? chameleon? , so it is a camouflage by nature, disguising itself to deceive other creatures, and hunting in that way. Once someone accidentally steps on it, its thorns will pierce into the bottom of the attacker's feet, and the poison carried on the thorns will enter the attacker's body along with the thorns, which is known as the "Deadly Strike". Deadly Strike? It has poison glands attached to each of its thorns, each of which is connected to a poison sac in the fins, and once the thorns are squeezed, the poison naturally enters the attacker's body along with the tips of the thorns. This kind of poison can be excruciatingly painful, and if it is not treated in time, it can hurt right up to the point of death. It sounds really, really scary and something to be respected.

But in front of the eaters, toxicity and what not is not a big deal. This fish is very toxic, but like puffer fish, the meat is delicate and tasty, no small thorns, edible and medicinal properties, rich in collagen, nutritional value is very high, is the new pursuit of gourmets. However, its cooking and puffer fish is also the same, must be very careful not to break the poison sac poison gland, must be specialized skilled workers can operate, so we still try not to try as well.

While the rosebud is very toxic, but certainly can not beat the human fishing, I hope you can still protect this species, do not overfishing, do not let it in the future can only be seen in the picture.
