Poisonous Plants

Poisonous plants contain toxic substances that can cause harm to humans and animals if ingested, touched, or inhaled. Common examples include poison ivy, hemlock, and oleander. These plants may produce symptoms ranging from mild irritation or nausea to severe illness or even death, depending on the type of toxin and the amount consumed. It's important to recognize poisonous plants, especially in outdoor settings, to avoid accidental exposure. Always consult experts or guides when identifying unfamiliar plants, and educate yourself about the potential dangers they pose to ensure safety in nature.
