Why It's Dangerous

Fly agaric mushrooms contain ibotenic acid and muscimol, toxins that primarily affect the nervous system, causing disorientation, altered consciousness, and in some cases seizures.

Symptoms to Watch For

  • Disorientation and unusual behaviour
  • Drooling
  • Vomiting
  • Muscle twitching or tremors
  • Seizures in severe cases

Vet Guidance

Treat as a veterinary emergency if fly agaric ingestion is known or suspected, given the significant neurological effects.
