Lionfish are found in the large areas of the East Coast, Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico. They are sure lovely to look at but don’t you dare touch them. The lionfish’s spine is filled with deadly venom and if it stings you, it can cause you severe pain, sweating, breathing problem, and in worst condition paralysis. If you ever come across lionfish (we hope you don’t) stay away from it and if unfortunately, it stings you, seeking immediate medical attention should be your first priority.
