Help me on poisonous mushrooms.

The thing is that I have this friend who picked himself some shitload of shrooms from his granpa's cow pastures. I told him that they're 100% not Libs, but he still ate em. Nothing bad happened, nothing good either. But whem we went hunting yesterday, whenever this friend found some little mushrooms, he ate it. I was like "what the fuck are you doing, I know what Libs look like, those ARE NOT Libs". I dont know if he doesnt want to understand me or something else.. In Estonia we have shitloads of "newbie" shroom hunters and loads of people eat wrong shrooms..
My question is this, is there anything dangerously poisonous growing on usual grassy cow pastures that my dumb friend could eat?
EDIT: I know I chose "No Subcategory" but it still shows as "ID Request"

when i take my "novice" friends to the spots i pick its quite laughable wot they pick up... i'll have to get some pics sometime of the things they thought were libs... i does worry me that my friends might pick the wrong shroom when i take them and die but i try and check wot they are pickin as best i can, one dude who goes with me every year picked a whole bag of wronguns last week... cant believe he forgot wot they look like!
anyway i dont notice alot of other types of mushroom growing where i pick... maybe 5 or 6 other common species there, i'll get some pics of them sometime too cos i have no idea wot they are 
signs of novice pickers last time i was out!
 well at least they realised their mistake!

Well maybe don't beat him up, he might not hunt with you anymore and end up poisoning himself.
I would suggest when he goes to eat a random mushroom, sucker punch him real hard in the arm. When he's all "What the fuck man!?!!!" Tell him he's gonna do worse to himself than that if he continues this dangerous practice, and in the mean time, you'll be soking him in the arm till he listens to you and waits for Liberty Caps.
Seriously, what is he thinking?? He didn't get high last time he ate random mushrooms... Yeah, there are many poisonous mushrooms that grow in all sorts of habitats. He's gonna fuck himself up in a bad way if he doesn't wise up.

Yes, there are poisonous species growing in pastures.
One time I took a guy out hunting and showed him what to pick. He ended up with a bag full of bright green, yellow, red, orange, salmon, black and pink Hygrocybes!

Fucking hell. Tell him you wont take him if hes gonna be an idiot, and he wont find anything active that way will he.
Some of these people have no respect and are idiots.

Maybe show him descriptions of mushroom poisoning in a book so he knows how dangerous it is. Or give him a gun with one bullet in it and have him play russian roullette. It's pretty much the same thing! I would especially worry that he could pick up a poisonous conocybe in that same habitat.
