End the Poison Chain
The Rodenticide Problem
A message from LA County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl: "Will you join me in pledging to #EndthePoisonChain? The use of anticoagulant rodenticide (rat poison) in your yard, your neighborhood, and your community does great harm to mountain lions, bobcats, and even your pets. The Santa Monica Mountains Fund and National Park Service are looking to sign up 10,000 community members who will refrain from using these deadly poisons. Learn more and take the pledge at samofund.org/takethepledge."
