Yep, Barb, that includes deer.  One of the few things that I think those
leather mouths won't eat.  But, Digitalis is quite toxic and I guess
they've all figured that out.   It contains Digoxin, used to treat heart
ailments in very small quantities.  2 fluid oz. or more given to a person
with a healthy heart will kill them from an apparent heart attack, or so I
have read.
