[RC] Olenanders - Nat Nelson

<<Makes one wonder what legal rights a rancher might
have in a situation like that....>>

We let our neighbors know just how poisonous oleanders
are to mammals - including humans - when injested. I
had one nieghbor who wanted to plant them on our
property line. I told her that if it killed one of my
horses she would be liable to pay for the value of the
horse and since I run a breeding operation she would
also be liable for the value of possible offspring
he/she could of had. She still wanted to plant them.
So I called the livestock board and the livestock
officer explained to her the liability of planting
such a dangerous plant. Well she started planting them
anyways and I called the sherrif and she told my
nieghbor that since she was informed of the liability
issues and the legitamate concern of livestock's
welfare that she would be arrested for malicious
intent if she continued planting the oleanders. That
stopped her :)
