Does snakehead have many bones? Is it poisonous?

1. Do snakeheads have many

bones? Fish are divided into many different species. There are differences between them, and sometimes the differences are relatively large. Fish can be divided into fish with more fish bones and fish with fewer fish bones according to the number of fish bones. Snakehead fish belong to the latter, because they do not have many fish bones. Although the specific number and distribution of fish bones are not the same, the main bones are basically common to all fish. The snakehead also has main spines, which are relatively large spines located in the center of the snakehead's body. Although snakehead fish have main spines, they are not particularly troublesome to handle because they are densely and regularly arranged.

Apart from the main spines, there are not many spines left in the snakehead, that is to say, there are not many small spines between their muscles. However, some other freshwater fish living in our country have many small spines, which are very different from snakehead, and can also be used as one of the distinguishing characteristics of snakehead. In addition to the spines in the body, there may be some sharp spines on the back of the snakehead.

2. Are snakehead spines poisonous

? As mentioned above, there are not many spines in snakehead, basically only big spines and few small spines. And these thorns are not poisonous. Not only the spines of snakehead are not poisonous, but also their bodies and heads are non-toxic, which is a better food. However, there are still some spines on the back of the snakehead, which are poisonous. Because these thorns are poisonous, if humans are accidentally stabbed while touching them, the toxin may enter the human body through the wound. However, there is no need to worry about it, the toxicity is not strong, and it will be fine if it is disinfected in time. However, in order to prevent airborne bacteria from entering the human body, we should be cautious when touching them.
