Abstract

The deaths of peafowls and a cockatoo were respectively traced to insecticide and lead toxicities. The specific insecticide could not be identified but was demonstrated in the liver by use of fruit flies. The liver of the cockatoo contained 7.1 ppm of lead. The source was presumably a plastic feeder painted with a leaded paint.
