The tragic deaths of hawks and other wildlife in my neighborhood highlight the significant dangers posed by anticoagulant rat poisons, leading to secondary poisoning.
Public awareness has increased since the establishment of our nonprofit, but dangerous rat poisons remain available, putting non-target wildlife at risk of preventable deaths.
California's leadership in reducing hazardous rat poisons must continue, as research shows alarming levels of exposure among raptors and other wildlife.
The proposed Poison Free Wildlife Act, AB 2552, aims to restrict the use of dangerous rodenticides while maintaining necessary exemptions for public health and safety.
