Well, at least until you live in Japan and pufferfish is a delicacy there.

[@roxyiconoclast]

@@triadwarfare I don’t think the pufferfish varieties eaten in Japan have spines. The tetrodotoxin in Japanese puffer fish (aka fugu) is highly concentrated in the liver and ovaries instead. I have eaten fugu in Japan, but it made me kind of nervous. In Hawaii, my father, who was a zoologist, had me feed peas to pufferfish while we were swimming in a lagoon. No spines there either, luckily, because the fugu were crowding around to get the peas!

My sister had an internship in a facility where they treated young or emaciated hedgehogs that wouldn't otherwise survive the winter and apparently they had a saying there that dying of old age for a hedgehog usually just means not being able to replace their blood at the same rate they lose it through ticks and flea and mites.

If it's injected, it's venom. If it damages just by touch or ingestion, it's poison.

[@TheGesterr]

I would say it's a grey area, and in fact both terms may be correct in the instance of defensive poison barbs since they can be used both in an active and passive manner of applying their toxins. Maybe even more likely to call it venomous since we'd have no issues calling a bee venomous even tho it uses the same strategy of defense, only it uses a single toxic barb (which we call a single poison barb a stinger instead).
