DDT is a highly poisonous insecticide used on crops in South America, and now outlawed for use in the United States. Small ground game and small birds who eat crops coated with DDT become sick and poisonous themselves, and are themselves eaten by larger birds, such as peregrine falcons, who later die as a result of DDT ingestion, such as Lady.
