BREAKING: Rat poison suspected
ABC says rat poison is the suspected Menu Foods contaminant.

March 23, 2007- ABC News has learned that investigators have determined that
a rodent killing chemical is the toxin in the tainted pet food that has
killed several animals. 

A source close to the investigation tells ABC News that the rodenticide,
which the source says is illegal to use in the U.S., was on wheat that was
imported from China and used by Menu Foods in 
nearly 100 brands of dog and cat food. 

A news conference is scheduled for this afternoon by experts in Albany, New
York where scientists at the state's Food Laboratory made the discovery a
week after a massive recall of 60 million cans 
and pouches was issued. 

The chemical is aminopterin. 

What investigators can't say so far is whether this is the only contaminant
in all of the recalled food. 

There is some good news according to the source. Knowing the chemical should
aid veterinarians who are treating animals that have been sickened by the
pet food. 

The chemical is used in the United States for, of all things, a cancer drug,
according to the source
