Is it True that Maple Leaves are Poisonous?
In this episode we answer the question, "Are Maple leaves poisonous?" The answer to this question may come as a surprise.
We begin by talking about some of the chemicals that exist within Maple leaves, and what they do once they enter the digestive tract.
We then describe how even a 1000 lb. horse can die within 18 hrs. after consuming several pounds of Red Maple leaves. We then discuss preventative measures and treatment options.
We wrap up by giving some suggestions on what you can do to keep you, your family, and your pets safe.
