Yes, eucalyptus leaves can be toxic to horses if ingested. They contain compounds that can lead to symptoms such as colic, diarrhea, and in severe cases, even neurological issues. Horses generally avoid eating eucalyptus leaves due to their strong smell and taste, but if they consume them, it can pose health risks. It's best to keep eucalyptus trees away from areas where horses graze.

No because Eucalyptus leaves are poisonous to every other living animal except for the Koala. I'm not sure if it is safe or not, but there is an overhanging eucalyptus tree that my orphaned lambs like to chew on sometimes. So, while it's meant to be poisonous, I don't think it's bad for them if they eat it sometimes.
