Look at the glands on her! Jeez... Does she excrete at all when you handle her?

No, she doesn't. I've only seen her excrete toxin once, when she was trying to squeeze through a very tight hole. Her parotid glands were the parts she was trying to squeeze past the edges when it happened. It didn't "squirt" all over the place; more like it "oozed" a little, as if someone were squeezing a tiny tube of very thick toothpaste. It was pure white in color.
