Destruction of sprouting toadstools
    #19084466 - 11/04/13 08:17 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Just wanted to share with you what has been happening in my neck of the woods over the last few years. The route I walked my dogs used to be full of mushrooms (Amanitas, Rossulas and many more I don't know the name of). What I have noticed is any new sprouting mushrooms have been kicked over and crushed over a path that covers a few square miles. The mushrooms have been unable to release their spores and have been in decline. I haven't seen a single one this year! All I can think of is someone is doing this deliberately. Could it be someone who is on the hunt for edibles?

And here's a picutre of the last Amanita muscaria I found there back in 2010. Heartbreaking that I can't find this beautiful mushroom again!

The lack of mushrooms sprouting probably has nothing to do with people.

But the ones that are kicked over do.

Probably just some kids running around out there OP, they tend to be the ones who kick mushrooms.

If it's a popular route for walking dogs I suspect they're at least as likely a cause as any forager.

My dogs have always seemed smart enough to stay away from them. But I have wondered about mushroom poisoning if a dog stands on one and gets it on their paws. And there used to be a lot of death caps further into the woods. Has there been any confirmed cases of poisoning by pets standing on them then washing their paws?

No, dogs have to eat the mushroom to get poisoned. 

Death caps kill many dogs per year.

Amanita muscaria causes dogs to go into a coma and the vets often kill the dog, however if they would have just waited the dogs recover from A. muscaria just fine.

Inocybes smell bad and this often attracts dogs, which occasionally die from muscarine poisoning.
