Along with the nutritional benefits that this brings, there is also a risk that many potentially poisonous species of wild plants may return in greater number, together with those which, although not outright poisons in themselves, may be toxic to some degree. Most horse owners are aware of and can identify plants which are the most common cause of poisoning such as ragwort, yew, laburnum and bracken, but other dangerous species such as cowbane or hemlock are not usually referred to except in specialist literature. This book lists over 50 plants which are commonly regarded as being poisonous in their own right. An illustration and profile of each is given, together with its prevalence, poisonous principle and symptoms.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 213mmItem Length: 137mmItem Width: 20mmItem Weight: 349gRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
