White river rafting is becoming a major summer recreational activity throughout the United States. Many people who are ill prepared physically or emotionally to survive will find themselves isolated and in extremely dangerous situations without access to medical help. In addition to the physical dangers of drowning, there are dangers that exist in the concept of "living off the land" and foraging for food. Cicuta douglasii is found in all of our western states, is extremely toxic and can easily be confused with wild parsnip or carrot. Physicians and poison control centers need to be aware of the common poisonous plants in their area and be prepared to treat cases of poisoning from these plants.
在美国，白河漂流正成为一项主要的夏季娱乐活动。许多在身体或心理上没有做好生存准备的人会发现自己孤立无援，处于极其危险的境地，无法获得医疗救助。除了溺水的身体危险外，“靠土地生存”和觅食也存在危险。道格拉斯水毒芹在我们所有的西部州都有发现，毒性极强，很容易与野生欧洲防风草或胡萝卜混淆。医生和中毒控制中心需要了解所在地区常见的有毒植物，并准备好治疗这些植物中毒的病例。
