Hapalochlaena, also known as blue-ringed octopus.
One could never guess it but the Hapalochlaena is one of the most venomous animals in the world. One more proof that, in this world, things are very rarely how they look.

YES, A TIKTOKER HOLD A DEADLY OCTOPUS
And survived to tell the tale.
At first glance, the blue-ringed octopus looks perfectly innocuous in their beautiful color pattern, bur rather, is an warning signal to potential predators. These colorful tiny octopus can kill you if they feel in danger.
Recently, a TikToker went viral after holding in their hands one of the most most dangerous animals in the ocean, in a vacation in Bali. TikTok is an understandable site.
blue-ringed octopus are actually four highly venomous species of octopus found in tide pools and coral reefs in the Pacific and Indian oceans, from Japan to Australia. They produce a potent neurotoxin called tetrodotoxin, a potentially-deadly substance also found in pufferfish. The toxin is produced by symbiotic bacteria in the blue-ringed octopusâs salivary glands, and is usually used in hunting and self-defence.
