The impact of the insecticide carbofuran (Furadan 480F) on the burrowing owl in Canada / Glen A. Fox ... [et al.]. : CW69-5/72E-PDF
"The Burrowing Owl is officially listed as a threatened species in Canada. Because of its limited range and specialized life habits, concerns were raised with respect to its vulnerability to insecticides used to control grasshopper infestations. In 1986 and 1987, the Canadian Wildlife Service commissioned field studies to look at the impacts of operational grasshopper spraying on this species. The results of this work indicate that there is an urgent need to reduce the exposure of the Burrowing Owl to one of the insecticides in use; carbofuran (Furadan 480F)"--Summary.
