What is Selenium Toxicity in Animals about?

Selenium is a non-metal essential in trace amounts for animal health but can be toxic in higher concentrations, with toxicity varying by chemical form and species. It is primarily sourced from certain plants, water, and food, with specific plants known to accumulate selenium and pose risks to livestock. Toxicity manifests in acute, subacute, and chronic forms, leading to various clinical signs including lethargy, respiratory failure, and hoof damage, with a narrow margin between deficiency and toxicity.
