"The blue-ringed octopus, despite its small size, carries enough venom to kill 26 adult humans within minutes. Their bites are tiny and often painless, with many victims not realizing they have been envenomated until respiratory depression and paralysis begins.[11] No blue-ringed octopus antivenom is available.[12]"

Ok. Then I'd rather have a dog.

Pretty sure no dog antivenom is available either. I'm just going to get a venomous snake to be safe.

This is why you start with small bites and build up an immunity. Then work your way up to larger breeds. You think people have chihuahuas because they actually want one?

Best explanation as to why people have chihuahuas I've ever read.
