Marijuana → -cattle/horse = excitement, muscular tremors, sweating, salivation, death -dogs = depression, ataxia, emesis, hypothermia -Tx: empty GI, restore body temp, maintain CV function Yellow star thistle → -encephalomalacia, starvation (can’t prehend/chew food) → Spotted knapweed Day-blooming jessamine → -cattle/horse = chronic debilitation -hypercalcemia, dystrophic calcification, foreleg lameness, plaques in aorta & endocardium, toxin like VitD3 Chinaberry → -nausea, constipation or diarrhea, respiratory paralysis, excitement or depression Senna → -recumbent, dark red urine, pale skeletal muscle but normal cardiac muscle, decreased milk (muscle degeneration) Red maple → -acute death w/ methemoblobinemia, cyanosis, depression -later intravascular hemolysis, Heinz bodies, hemoglobinuria -death in 1-6d, dark kidneys, icterus Kleingrass → -Liver dz in horse Black walnut → -horse = limb edema, laminitis -dog = possible gastroenteritis or convulsions False dandelion → -horse: high-stepping stringhalt like gait with hyperflexion of the hind limbs Hoary alyssum → - horse: fever, swollen legs, laminitis English ivy → -gastroenteritis Stinging nettle → -people = itching, burning skin rash -dog = mm weakness, vomition, bronchial constriction, slow irregular HR -Tx = atropine Perilla mint → -bovine pulmonary emphysema, proliferative pneumonia Hairy vetch → -dermatitis, conjunctivitis, diarrhea Crown vetch → -toxin to monogastrics Sweet potato → -Cattle: Ipomeanol in moldy sweet potato causes pulmonary emphysema and edema → Buckthorn -Laxative Easter Lily → -Cat: severe kidney dz Macadamia nuts → Dog: vomiting, weakness, ataxia, hyperthermia Grapes & Raisins → -Dog: vomiting, kidney failure Kentucky coffee tree → → Avocado -Birds: cardiac failure -Goats: sterile mastitis Hydrangea → -vomiting, diarrhea with or without blood, colic, and lethargy - or contact dermatitis → Burdock → Grass awns -oral ulcers -migrate through body → Giant hogweed -photophytodermatitis?
