Fluoride emissions caused severe livestock losses among Mohawk dairy farmers

Evidence

According to Dr. Lennart Krook and Dr. George Maylin, two veterinarians from Cornell University, Mohawk farmers suffered severe stock losses of their dairy herds in the mid-1970s due to poor reproductive functions and fluorosis, a brittling and breakage of teeth and bones, which they found were linked to the fluoride emissions. — Winona LaDuke, All Our Relations, 98
