Bird species, both domestic and wild, are frequently exposed to a wide range of toxic compounds.Toxicosis in avian patients is often a clinical challenge.Diagnosis often relies on history and clinical signs because specific tests for most toxicants are not available in clinical practice, or they require unsustainable blood volume for small avian species.The management of toxicoses consists of patient stabilization, decreasing toxin absorption, improving its elimination, and supporting therapy.This literature review provides an outline of the most common toxicoses in birds, as well as their diagnosis and possible treatments.birds toxicoses intoxication avian medicine exotic pet medicine The author(s) declare that no financial support was received for the research and/or publication of this article.Indeed, several cases have been reported in the literature concerning both heavy metal intoxication and toxic plant ingestion ( 1 – 3 ).Birds are smart and curious animals, and the accidental risk of toxic substance ingestion is relatively high.The physiological response to toxic agents is highly variable and influenced by numerous factors.Additionally, the nature of the specific toxicant, the route of exposure, and the quantity of the toxin inhaled or systemically absorbed play critical roles in determining the overall toxicological impact ( 3 ).
