Does anyone out there know of papers that address, or even note, ungulates 
eating plastic?  Many of us have had the problem of cows or elk eating 
plastic flagging or the tops off of pin flags, but I am having a difficult 
time finding mention of this in papers or books.  Fred Provenza mentions 
this in some of his work, but that is about all I have found – that and a 
paper saying moose didn’t eat plastic flagging. 

Thanks in advance.  If there is any interest, I will post the results to 
the list.
