The potential risks and effects of 1080 poison on dogs include vomiting, seizures, difficulty breathing, and even death. It is a highly toxic substance that can be fatal if ingested by dogs.

In my opinion it is Compound 1080 "This poison is odorless, tasteless, and has no antidote. The bodies of those killed with 1080 remain poisonous for a year."
No it's just an old rat poison that is no longer readily available. if you can get your hands on it, it may be the best poison for other mammals. For example it is used for coyotes.
The debate over banning 1080 in New Zealand centers on its environmental and ethical implications versus its effectiveness in controlling invasive species. Proponents argue that 1080 is crucial for protecting native wildlife, particularly birds, from pests like rats and possums. Critics, however, raise concerns about its potential harm to non-target species and the broader ecosystem. Ultimately, any decision should weigh the ecological benefits against the risks and explore alternative pest control methods.
