Cactus ID

[Orko]

I have this cactus in my yard, it was a very old and large plant that collapsed after a storm a more tahna year ago. These are the young paddles growing, I am assuming that it is a very safe plant, but I just want to be sure...

The picture is a little blurry, but it looks like opuntia to me.
