Today I learned: Chocolate is toxic — equally so to mammals, birds, and humans. It takes approximately 1 pound of chocolate to kill 7 pounds of dog, cat, bird, human, ferret, etc. By this ratio, the average human would have to eat about 19 or 20 pounds of chocolate to be affected!…but a 5 pound Yorkie is in serious trouble if it eats most of a 1-pound box of chocolate candy.
