Thread: People very sick after eating wild pig

Discussion in a forum is very much an exercise in brainstorming - resulting in good and bad ideas, and in criticisms of both. Nothing wrong with that.

It is a most curious case and the apparent time window for the couple going down with poisoning does not fit with clostridium botulinum toxin ingestion, nor does their loss of consciousness.

It carries little weight to cite that the treating team have the whole picture when the evidence that is available appears to exclude botulism. Not reassuring for hunters.
