Oh no.

I honestly want to know the story behind this picture. Maybe their venom glands can be removed? A quick Wikipedia search showed that this one isn't brightening up its blue rings like they do when they feel threatened, and that generally you can survive if a respirator is available, but that doesn't seem like enough to risk holding one..

Ohh. Effing is a place!

I always thought... Never mind.

I mean I'd love to see one just maybe not handle one. Also, just how bitey are they really

I love the f---ing petting zoo.

Once in a lifetime... As in you can do it once.

mating behavior
The initiation of physical contact is completely independent from sex, size, or residency status.
However, sperm is only released during sexual interaction with females but not with males,
which indicates that upon copulation, the male can distinguish the difference on whether to inseminate or not.

Huh, neat.

I wouldn't let kids hold stuff like that tbh. Not just because of the poison, either.
