Brookline Bird Club – America’s most active bird club!

May 5 Webinar Open to All with Heather Packard, Mass Audubon – Rescue Wildlife from Rodenticides

Please join the BBC on the evening of Tuesday, May 5 from 7PM to 8:30PM for a webinar with Heather Packard from the Massachusetts Audubon Society entitled Rescue Wildlife from Rodenticides.

Raptors, coyotes, and other predators balance Massachusetts’ ecosystems. But shocking numbers of these iconic creatures have been sickened and killed after eating poisoned rodents. Mass Audubon’s Rescue Raptors program supports groups in communities across Massachusetts to reduce the use of these poisons, and wildlife advocates in many communities have been advocating to ban the use of these harmful poisons. 

Join us to learn how rodent poisons harm wildlife and plans to reduce rodent poison use. Please register in advance for this webinar. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. This event is sponsored by the Brookline Bird Club. Wildlife advocates from across the state are welcome!
