Thread: Warning Distressing and Disturbing Photographs- 1080 Poison

You are wrong Woody, Ld 50 is a measure of the concentration of a toxin in relation to body weight where 50 % of individuals in a test group will as you say die. Figures are typically determined for rats, mice or other laboratory animals and usually extrapolated for other animals.
It is used to determine the concentration required in baits to achieve positive kill. It is not in a measure of lethality on a scale of 1 to 100. It frustrates me that both sides of this debate often misinterpret scientific data or reinvent it to suit there ends.
