It is not a good idea for any animal to eat poisonous plants. Some can tolerate some types and other types will kill them. It's best not to take that chance. Because what one animal can eat quite comfortably could kill an animal of a similar species.
On the other hand what is poisonous very much depends on the species involved. Raisins, and to a lesser extent even grapes are deadly poisons to dogs; they aren't considered poisonous to people. At all costs, prevent your dog from eating even one raisin. Koalas live on a diet almost exclusively consisting of Eucalyptus leaves. They contain high levels of the noxious/toxic Eucalyptus oil that makes the plant inedible for just about any other creature, and they contain very little nutritive value. But Koalas thrive on them and can't live without an abundant supply. Possums also eat Eucalyptus leaves but to a lesser extent and it doesn't have any affect on them either. Koalas also only like some types of Eucalyptus tree and won't touch other types.

Are monarch butterflies poisonous?
Monarchs are poisonous because they eat plants that are themselves poisonous.There's a distinction to be made between "poisonous" and "venomous". Monarchs do not produce any venom, nor do they sting or bite (they're actually not even capable of "biting" as adults; they live solely on liquids) you have to eat them for the poisons to get into your system.Some animals do not eat Monarch Butterflies (caterpillar, chrysalises, or adults) because the poisons in their bodies taste terrible to them. Other animals do eat them. They are not poisonous to touch. They do have poisons in their bodies that are from their host plant, milkweed.

Is an animal more poisonous than a plant?
It depends on the type of plant and the type of animal, although there are many types of poisonous animals e.g the dart frog. There are only two snakes in the world that are poisonous to humans and other animals. As in if you ate them they would make you ill or kill you. That is because they eat poisonous animals (frogs etc) and retain the poison in their flesh. Don't confuse poisonous with venomous. Venomous snakes make and store their venom and kill or maim by biting or spitting. In the majority of cases their flesh is safe to eat.
