FLUORIDE POISONING OF HORSES FROM ARTIFICIALLY
Lennart P Krook,a Cathy Justusb
Ithaca, NY and Pagosa Springs, CO, USA
SUMMARY: On a farm in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, Quarter horses consuming
artificially fluoridated water (up to 1.3 ppm F) for extended periods of time developed
classical symptoms of chronic fluoride intoxication including dental fluorosis,
crooked legs, hyperostosis and enostosis, hoof deformities, and microscopic
evidence of reduced bone resorption. These symptoms began to appear about two
years after fluoridation started in 1985 and gradually became more severe.
