#5 Pfeffer’s Flamboyant Cuttlefish

Don’t attempt to hug this cuttlefish. Although cute and colorful, the displays of this fish function as a warning. This cuttlefish is poisonous, and its muscles contain a highly dangerous substance, just like some squid and octopuses. This is the only type of cuttlefish known to be poisonous.
