Members of the public are asked to leave what they find growing in Toronto's public parks and natural spaces because of safety risks for humans and the impact that removal can have on the natural environment. The risk to humans is that some plants and mushrooms can be similar in appearance to those that are safe, but when eaten can lead to severe illness and even death.
The City of Toronto encourages residents to be responsible during warmer weather and ensure proper safety mechanisms such as window safety latches and pool fences are in place to prevent tragedies, particularly with children under five.
