> 10-3. Some common misconceptions about poisonous plants are > - "Watch the animals and eat what they eat." Most of the time this statement is true, but some animals can eat plants that are poisonous to humans. > - "Boil the plant in water and any poisons will be removed." Boiling removes many poisons, but not all. > - "Plants with a red color are poisonous." Some plants that are red are poisonous, but not all. > 10-4. The point is there is no one rule to aid in identifying poisonous plants. You must make an effort to learn as much about them as possible. I absolutely love the use of language here. So minimal, so careful, so factual. Thank you for sharing.
