The blue ringed octopus are one of the brightly luminescent blue ring marine life where apart from its beautiful appearance, it is famous for its venom where it is a thousand time more powerful than cyanide which can kill 26 adult humans within a minute even with just a slight touch.<\/p>\n<p>The toxin the octopuses produced out is called tetrodotoxin which can be found in putter fish and with just one stung, the toxin will block nerve signals causing one&#8217;s muscle to go numb then followed with nausea, vision loss or blindness, loss of senses and lastly the victim will experience muscle paralysis then leads to respiratory arrest.<\/p>\n<p>So far there is not anti-venom specific to the blue-ringed octopus, and according to Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, this might be the second record of blue ringed octopus in Singapore so far. However, these octopuses are not aggressive and only will attack when provoked or handled.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-42971\" src=\"https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-1170x1170.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MRT40960-scaled-1-585x585.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>source youtube<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diver Discover Rare Super Venomous Blue-Ringed Octopus At Pulau Hantu source youtube After the&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":42969,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[65],"tags":[4607],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.2 -
