Field evidence of secondary poisoning of foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and buzzards (Buteo buteo) by bromadiolone, a 4-year survey

TLDR
The liver concentrations of bromadiolone residues were elevated and species-specific diagnostic values were determined, quite similar to those reported in the literature when secondary anticoagulant poisoning was experimentally assessed.

Poisoning of wildlife with anticoagulant rodenticides in new york

TL;DR: From 1971 through 1997, 51 cases (55 individual animals) of poisoning of non-target wildlife in New York (plus two cases in adjoining states) with anticoagulant rodenticides with brodifacoum were documented—all but two of these cases occurred in the last 8 years.

Pesticides and the intoxication of wild animals.

TL;DR: The purpose of this paper was to review the wildlife-poisoning surveillance systems and their results regarding the circumstances of exposure of wild animals, the pesticides involved and the species exposed.

Exposure of non‐target small mammals to rodenticides: short‐term effects, recovery and implications for secondary poisoning

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that routine rat control reduced local populations of non-target small mammals following rodenticidal rat control, demonstrating a significant route of exposure of predators and scavengers of small mammals to secondary poisoning.

Second generation anticoagulant rodenticides in predatory birds: Probabilistic characterisation of toxic liver concentrations and implications for predatory bird populations in Canada.

TL;DR: It is estimated that a minimum of 11% of the sampled great horned owl population is at risk of being directly killed by SGARs, the first time the potential mortality impact ofSGARs on a raptor population has been estimated.

Adverse Outcome Pathway and Risks of Anticoagulant Rodenticides to Predatory Wildlife

TL;DR: An adverse outcome pathway for ARs was developed to identify information gaps and end points to assess the effectiveness of regulations and describes chemical properties of ARs, established macromolecular interactions by inhibition of vitamin K epoxide reductase, cellular responses including altered clotting factor processing and coagulopathy, organ level effects such as hemorrhage, and potential consequences to predator populations.

Review of the toxicity and impacts of brodifacoum on non‐target wildlife in New Zealand

TL;DR: Brodifacoum is only slowly eliminated from the liver, and therefore accumulates in vertebrates if there are repeated exposures to the toxin, which increases the risk of death, and all vertebrates that eat baits or poisoned prey are at risk.

Rodenticides in British barn owls.

TL;DR: Barn Owls in Britain are now widely exposed to second-generation rodenticides, and not all owls exposed to these chemicals are likely to receive a lethal dose, while brodifacoum is more toxic to owls than difenacOUm; and while there is yet no evidence that rodenticides have had any appreciable effect on Barn Owl populations in Britain, further monitoring of residue levels and population trends in desirable.

Residues of the Rodenticide Brodifacoum in Voles and Raptors after Orchard Treatment

TL;DR: Damage by meadow and woodland voles and common barn-owls to apple trees has been a problem for eastern United States fruit growers for many years and rodenticide baits are highly effective in controlling voles in orchards.

Anticoagulant Poisoning in Animals: A Simple New High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatographic (HPTLC) Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Eight Anticoagulant Rodenticides in Liver Samples

TL;DR: This technique was repeatable and reproducible, and the percent recovery was greater than 87% for each substance, and could be a valuable alternative to current high-performance liquid chromatographic methods.
