Yes, certain species of catfish can still be toxic after they are dead, particularly those that possess venomous spines. The venom can cause pain, swelling, and other symptoms if skin contact occurs or if the spines are ingested. Symptoms of exposure may include localized pain, swelling, and in severe cases, systemic reactions like nausea or difficulty breathing, depending on the amount of venom and the individual's sensitivity. However, the risk of poisoning primarily arises from handling live catfish or consuming improperly prepared fish rather than from dead specimens.
