I have a question about chokecherry trees.. I had an old fellow tell me that green chokecherry leaves are highly poisonous to sheep or cows...He was wondering about my cows grazing the creekbottom where there are chokecherry trees and how I hadn't had any problems....Told me a story of an old sheepherder taking a nap in a clump of chokecherry trees and when he woke up- there were 5 dead sheep....From my old sheep experiences, I told him I figured he must have just looked at them wrong and they dropped over from general principles... :wink:
Anyway I have never heard of this- and never had any problems altho usually its later in the year before I have to let the cows to the springs on the creek...
Anyone else have any experience or knowledge of chokecherry trees causing a problem?
