Rococo toads? O: IMPORTANT!

[Kurt]

Kurt, even that's a bit alarmist. These things don't go around just dumping poison out on their water bowls.

I know, I am just covering out collective *****.

Though at the Museum of Sciensce we had a casting of a very large marine toad and the story behind it, according to the curator, is that the guy who did ended up in the emergency room. He was casting a dead toad and had been using x-acto knives in process and managed to nick himself a few times. He ended up in the ER from being poisoned by this dead toad. Don't know how much of that is true, but I don't think the curator was in the habit of spreading taurocopro around.

The casting was pretty awesome. Like I said it was HUGE. Didn't know toads could get that big till I saw it. The guy did an excellent job on it. It looked like it was alive. We could've put it on display with the live animals and I don't think a single visitor would catch on. Of course most people think red-eyes and darts aren't real until they move, then they are in awe.

So would I handle a marine toad? I free handled a copperhead earlier today so yes, yes I would.

Ehh I am depressed so idc if i die or not. doesnt matter. And no I am not suicidal. Just dont really care. xD I die i die. But. I like cane toads...because theyre so misunderstood yet so incredibly remarkable

Copperhead envenomations are rarely fatal, but still you would not want to take a hit. Their venom is hemotoxic, which is to say it will destroy your flesh and bring on a nasty case of necrosis.

Also please explain what "idc" & "xD" are/mean. Thank you.
