As the woman picked up the platypus, the animal dug its spurs dug into her bare hand and injected venom into her body.

    This “case” doesn’t sound “odd” at all. A woman picked up a wild animal and it did the thing that you expect wild animals to do.

      I live in the Rocky Mountains and I see this shit all the time. Everybody thinks they’re a special little Disney princess, and they are shocked, absolutely shocked, when Bambi freaks out and kicks them in the face. As if that weren’t the sensible reaction to being cornered by an apex predator.

      Wild animals are dangerous and unpredictable. Just leave them alone. Even the cute ones can hurt you.

    I mean, she kinda deserved it. I get wanting to help, but when you fuck with wild animals don’t be surprised when they fuck back.
