Herbivores generally do not eat wolfsbane because it contains the toxic compound aconitine, which can be harmful and even fatal to animals. Herbivores have evolved to recognize and avoid plants with toxic compounds as a means of self-preservation. Additionally, wolfsbane has a bitter taste which further deters herbivores from consuming it.
