    But how bitey is it? Why would it even want to bite? What if I’m very very gentle?

      If it’s cornered it will bite. First it will flee (can’t), then it will show the rings you can see in the picture to warn predators. If it does that and you still touch it, or worse, pick it up, it will bite.

        What if I put my hand in its path and it climbs on? And if I keep my hand flat so it can leave at will? Maybe I should put a snack on my palm!

          I do not recommend putting snack, might encourage biting XD

      I’m speaking for a human here but I’m very bitey. From this sample size being 100% bitey we have to assume its the same for the blue-ringed octopus.

      The biteyness increases when one gets moved out of the zone one can breathe in.

            You sure? Might be a hyperintelligent plant with delusions of animalism 🤷

                Well, hyperintelligent by the standards of daffodils, maybe 🤷

        That seems fair. Keep hand underwater, got it.

      You’d die and the octopus would be fine.
