    For those who asked the question, the lion fish venom is neutralized by stomach acid (cooking it does too). As long as the shark doesn’t get poked it should be fine. Swallowing it head first should help avoid injury.

    It's not neutralized by stomach acid, it's just that people are assuming that a venom is also necessarily a poison but venoms work by being injected and are typically not poisonous to ingest.

    If the lionfish has venomous spines how can the shark eath them?

    If they learn to consume them head first the odds of getting hurt decreases. The acid neutralizes the venom. Incidentally cooking the lion fish also neutralizes the venom. Poison doesn’t work that way unfortunately.

    Huh, Neat. 2:50 It's cool that they're trying to get the sharks to eat the Lionfish but how are they not getting stabbed in the mouth by any of the spines on the Lionfish? Then again I've seen Wolf Fish eat giant spiney Urchins and tear them apart like it's nothing, so I guess maybe it's just not a big deal in this situation? It'd be really neat if we could get something to start hunting the Crown of Thorns Starfish aswell as Urchins, although I think the Sea Otters are finally bouncing back and able to take care of the Urchins now. 😅👍

    It's good that those divers are teaching the sharks to associate divers with food. I see no flaw in this plan.
