Bitter Bolete While probably not poisonous, these are unpalatable to humans. Squirrels and chipmunks on the other hand seem to find them to be just fine. There were lots of boletes popping up and most of them had little tooth marks on them already. Caloboletus rubripes,Fall,Geotagged,United States Click/tap to enlarge Species introCountry intro
