Palm oil, which is toxic to dogs, has been washed up near Trearddur Bay
Dog owners on Anglesey have been warned after what is suspected to be palm oil washed up on a beach near Trearddur Bay.
The substance, often found in boulder-size chunks, is not dangerous to humans but is toxic and potentially fatal to dogs.
The chunks of oil smell of diesel and dogs can lick them before becoming seriously ill.
The high toxin count has damaging effects on the dog's health and leads to vomiting and diarrhoea.
Possible that palm oil has been washed up on Porth-y-Castell beach, #TrearddurBay. This can be toxic to dogs. Please be aware.@NatResWales
Further investigations at the scene are expected by Natural Resources Wales.
