Poison cockleburs follow showers in New Mexico
After a drought relief brings scattered showers, cockleburs sprout rapidly in damp ranges. Livestock fed on dry forage may consume the bur, which is poisonous until the plant has more than four leaves. Oils or fats can aid treatment, but prevention by moving cattle off infested ranges is advised. In one case 38 cattle died within 24 hours after winter feeding. Prof. Koogler, Hidalgo county agent, notes the risk.
