Poison notice in paper tonight for most of Pureora Rangitoto ranges.

1080 does not occur naturally in plants. 1080 is sodium mono fluoroacetate. and has little taste but additives such as cinnamon are mixed to hide the taste.

The similar compound occurring in plants is potassium fluoroacetate and has a bitter taste which is a natural deterrent to browsing animals. It is too bitter to be used as a deliberate poison as the bitter taste cannot be concealed.

And no, I definitely do not work for the poisoners.

Hope this is of help.

Don't think Rangitoto Ranges are getting it, DOC said nothing north of HW30.
