A couple of points.
Can't speak about what happens anywhere other than in WA.
How can you be sure that the baits were obviously transferred by crows.
Did you see it happen, are you just guessing or relying on what someone said somewhere else?
The authorised baits used in pastoral WA are dried meat baits, a controlled amount of the bait is injected into a 50mm cube of red meat, usually roo, and then air dried until it shrinks to around a 30mm cube.
The only similarity to chocolate is that the dried bait is vaguely the same colour, doesn't look like or smell like chocolate.
Baits the size of the palm of the hand are more likely to be the work of a dog hater and it's more than likely that they were not 1080. It's much more likely to be strychnine and or cyanide in areas where there is or has been mining activity.
Disco.
