Are walnuts safe in the pasture?

here is a list, one of many on the internet, that features juglone tolerant plants.

there have always been walnut trees lining our pasture and lawn. no horses have died and we have grass growing in both areas. i think what ksfarmer said comes into play...as long as the animals are not starving, there should be no issues. i say that because we also have choke cherry and red maple in the fencerows.

We have black walnuts along one sheep pasture. The sheep llamas and donkey don't touch the nuts or the trees. (The squirrels OTOH, love them.) However, they do find the shade comfortable. I believe, as did my great great grandfather, that you should "leave a little shade for the beasties." They don't ruin the pasture in the shaded areas, but in the heat of our summers, they find shade necessary during the middle of the day. If we didn't have trees, we would need shelters.

We put ours trees in 25 years ago. The animals were fenced away when the trees were small. Any small trees they could reach, they ate.

I had a garden in town, it grew great for several years, then a walnut seedling got started just over the property line. The first year it hurt my garden , knee high plants turned brown all at same time. I thought it was herbicide that "blew in." Next year, repeat exactly. Early spring ok, then boom all nightshades(tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, eggplants) dead in 2 or 3 days. Killed a pussy willow, some vines, etc looked all the world like some unknown enemy was spraying my plants. It was a moist area perhaps that made it worse. Sweet corn, rhubarb, castor beans, sweet poatoes seemed unaffected. Squirrels would bury walnuts in flower beds, small seedlings would kill plants. Keep walnuts in woods, they are a disaster. After what I went thru I can easily believe the worst.
