Sodium monofluoroacetate birds

Of special interest are secondary intoxications due to free-ranging birds consuming carrions of animals that died of rodenticide poisoning. Strychnine and sodium monofluoroacetate are other rodent control compounds that are involved because they cause acute death in the primary victims and are thus present in high concentrations in carrions. [Pg.2818]

Strychnine-poisoned birds show clinical effects within 2h of ingesting the product. The birds become apprehensive and nervous and have violent tetanic convulsions, which cause them to become exhausted and to die of hypoxia. Sodium monofluoroacetate causes overstimulation of the CNS and myocardial depression. Cardiac failure is the cause of death and occurs within 1 h of consuming the product or contaminated carcass. [Pg.2818]
