Hello: I was thinking about this over Yom Tov, and isn’t there a Gemara in Chullin that says that if an animal ate poison it’s Kosher but Assur to eat because of Sakana? Presumably the poison does not equal 1/60 of the mass of the meat of the animal (even if we cannot count the bones), so this Gemara would sound like by Sakana we worry when there is even less than 1/60. Unless you want to say that in this case it’s known that there is a danger. In such a case, presumably even that long list of Mekilim you cite would have to agree that it’s Assur to eat (it would be very strange to say that in a case where we know the Sakana is potent that we can still assume it is really not there because it is Batul).
