    Neutrality isn't a prerequisite for truth. It can be those with a passion /obsession that dig deep enough to find it.

    True!
    I think this story would have been better picked up by someone else that’s all.

    Dont let the press / herald hear you say that. they might get the idea that they are allowed to be onesided biased and do poor research or editing. (Some of their grammar should be charged as murdering the english language) I sometimes wonder if any of the reporters can actually read and write now.

    The New zealand LD 50 for pigs is .4mg/kg so not much and given pigs feeding habits they are in the firing line, they do have a mechanism that allows them to vomit which will save a few Im sure .The LD 50 is simply a lethal for 50% of a population. What isn't known is the maximum dose a pig may ingest and still survive. There is also some question around the toxic dose for a human, it is mostly guess work as far as I can find and comes from some quite old studies.
    Has anyone seen,can link, any recent studies on the toxic levels to humans that isn't a regurgitation of old estimates ?

    I dont see a lot real investigative journalism in local media, I think the internet has turned news into a race to be first consigning facts to the back of the bus.

    Facts are sooo 2005. It's all about opinions now. I though one of 1080's big selling points was that it's structure was more toxic to mammals than to invertebrates and birds.

    Israel has been using 1080 to poison Palastinians and their livestock under the guise of 'rodent control' perhaps they would have some figures on human toxicity ??

    Quick! Rename 1080 cyclone b and watch it be banned faster than Australia banned semis

    Unfortunately like common sense, there is a severe shortage of gumption these days. Hell it has been absent so long that many people don't even know what it is.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
