Rat Poison Kills More Than Rats!

Is rat poison our "new DDT"? Lisa Owens Viani, Co-Founder and Director of Raptors Are The Solution (RATS) will describe the epidemic of wildlife mortality being caused by rat poison in the food web. She will explain its impacts on birds of prey as well as on coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, and many other animals. Lisa will also discuss regulatory changes affecting over-the-counter purchase of rodenticides, loopholes in the law, alternatives to rodenticides, and what we can do to help beneficial predators thrive and continue to provide us with their free, natural, pest control services.

RATS will also be presenting some live, educational, non-releasable raptors at the event!
