[Possible chloralose poisoning in buzzards (author's transl)].
The use of alpha-chloralose in poisoned eggs is conditionally permitted in the control of Corvidae. Chloralose does not have a selective action. Poisoning occurs in other egg-eating animals (hedgehogs) and, indirectly, in carrion-eating predators which prey on these unintended victims. A tentative diagnosis of alpha-chloralose poisoning in three buzzards (Buteo buteo) was based on the history, the clinical picture (identical with that in magpies with known chloralose poisoning), the complete recovery and the exclusion of other diseases. Other methods for the control of Corvidae are advocated.
