Yes, the yew tree (Taxus spp.) is poisonous. All parts of the tree, except for the fleshy arils surrounding the seeds, contain toxic compounds called taxines, which can be harmful or fatal if ingested. Symptoms of poisoning may include difficulty breathing, tremors, and cardiac arrest. It’s important to keep yew trees away from pets and livestock, as they are particularly susceptible to its toxicity.
