Its cheeks hold poison sacs. It tries to catch foes off guard to jab them with toxic fingers.

Inflating its poison sacs, it makes an eerie blubbering sound for intimidation.

It rarely fights fairly, but that is strictly to ensure survival. It is popular as a mascot.

Fluid squeezed from its finger, albeit poisonous, is a significant ingredient in remedies for lower-back pain.
