		Brackens (Pteridium) are a genus of about ten species of large, coarse ferns, in the family Hypolepidaceae.
		In cold environments bracken is winter-deciduous, and, as it requires well-drained soil, is generally found growing on the sides of hills.
		Bracken fiddleheads (the immature, tightly curled emerging fronds) have been considered edible by many cultures throughout history, and are still commonly used today as a foodstuff.

		Bracken is also invasive and may lead to the loss of more important habitats due to the dense shade cast and the increased acidity caused by the decaying fronds.
		Bracken control should be avoided in areas that support species of conservation concern such as short-eared owl, ring ouzel, twite, high brown or pearl-bordered fritillary butterflies or snakes.

		Bracken is not considered palatable, but horses will eat it if no other forage is available, or they will consume it in hay or bedding, where it remains toxic.
		Consumption of bracken results in the depression of bone marrow (and thus red and white blood cell and platelet production), and the plant has a direct or indirect anti-coagulant property.
		Hay with bracken in it should never be fed. If large amounts were consumed, and especially if clinical signs are present, call a veterinarian immediately.
