There's some pretty nasty stuff in the deep. I heard there's less than five people on Earth who survived being stung by a conch.
I don't claim to be an expert on animal behavior, but it seems more than a few times I saw him basically get in the face of some critter who just plain didn't like cameras. Or humans.
More often than not, he was playing with animals that don't recognize humans as being on top of the food chain.
A conch? Maybe you're thinking of a cone shell.
And not one who has ever survived being bitten by one........very dangerous creatures.
Conchs are venomous? I had no idea! There was a restaurant here in KC that used to serve the best Cuban Sandwich and Conch Fritters!
Unfortunatly, they changed the menu... Could you be talking about a Cone Shell? I know that they're terribly venomous.
