Poisons and Toxins
Imagine that you are working as a veterinary scientist and you have been called in to assess some grazing pasture for livestock. Using information from the following links or other resources that you find in your research, prepare a report on five different plants that pose a threat to grazing livestock in one Canadian province.
Identify five different plant species that are potentially poisonous or toxic to livestock such as cows or horses. For EACH of the five plants that you identify, please do the following:
Describe what the plant looks like, including descriptions of any flowers or seeds, so that the farmer or rancher could identify the plant.
Discuss the typical habitat for this plant. Where is this plant most likely to be found?
Describe the symptoms or signs that livestock might exhibit if they ingested or came into contact with this poisonous/toxic plant.
Assess how toxic the plant is. For example, how much of this plant would cattle have to ingest for the cattle to become ill?
Identify what treatment options might be available for livestock who have been affected. If the plant is highly toxic, it is ok to state that treatment is unlikely to succeed.
