The history of veterinary toxicology in farm animals, like that of human toxicology, is marked by a number of classical, large-scale cases of poisoning, which have become widely known. A number of these cases are briefly reported, attention being drawn to the specific problems to which they give rise. Publicity, liability, diagnostic problems and amount of loss often have a delaying effect on settlements. Methods which might improve this situation are broadly outlined.
