The association of bait formulation of strychnine with poisonings in nontarget species in Saskatchewan from 1975 to 2007.
    The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne, 2009, Volume: 50, Issue:11

    This study investigated the association of pre-mixed and freshly mixed strychnine baits with poisoning of nontarget animals in Saskatchewan. During years where the formulations were derived from a 2% concentrate, there was a greater than 2-fold increase in case numbers. There were approximately 3-fold fewer cases when the baits were prepared by pest control officers rather than by producers.

Intentional poisoning of animals in southeastern Spain: a review of the veterinary toxicology service from Murcia, Spain.
    Veterinary and human toxicology, 2003, Volume: 45, Issue:1

    Data of toxicological analyses carried out over a 10-y period for suspected cases of wild and domestic animal poisonings are summarized. Of the 123 cases suspected as deliberate, 102 were be analyzed and 50 of them were positive to intentional poisoning, a total of 107 dead animals. Pesticides, especially insecticides (72%) and rodenticides (26%), were frequently involved. Aldicarb (n=15), anticoagulant rodenticides (n=8) and strychnine (n=4) were the most common toxins in baits prepared for intentional poisonings; carbofuran, methomyl, endosulfan and paraquat were also used. A coordinated Veterinary Toxicology Services network of collaboration should be set up in Spain to improve the quality of the services provided.

Pesticide poisoning of livestock: a review of cases investigated.
    The Veterinary record, 1982, Jul-03, Volume: 111, Issue:1

    The cases of suspected poisoning of livestock by a range of organic chemicals, mainly pesticides, investigated at the Central Veterinary Laboratory during the period 1977 to 1980 are reviewed. The incidences of poisoning by various types of compound and the species most at risk are discussed. Organophosphorus pesticides and rodenticides were the commonest causes of poisoning. Pesticides accounted for one in 25 of all fatal poisonings listed by the veterinary investigation diagnosis analysis (VIDA) of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.
