Poison PlantsA common misconception - toxic plants don't taste good - animals will not eat them! Healthy Llamas may be more resistant to minor toxic ingestions Certain conditions will favor the ingestion of poisonous plants - cold weather, drought and herbicides. REMEMBER: - Plants vary with the seasons
- Plant populations change with time
- Plant identification can be tricky
- Look high and low - from ground covers to vines high in trees
- Remember landscape plants
For a list of plant photos to help you with visual identification, and information on different poisonous plants, their locations and the signs that your animal may have ingested the plant visit: http://www.pearsonpond.com/plants.html
