Do not let the animal lick <br />algae off of its fur. <br />• Contact a veterinarian if your animal <br />shows symptoms of blue -green algae <br />poisoning. Symptoms include loss of <br />energy, loss of appetite, vomiting, <br />stumbling and falling, foaming at <br />the mouth, diarrhea, convulsions, <br />excessive drooling, tremors and <br />seizures, or any other unexplained <br />sickness that occurs within a day or so <br />after being in contact with water. <br />Health and safety tips for pets <br />and livestock <br />
