USDA- Stop Killing Our Wildlife with Poison

  • by: Animal Advocates
  • recipient: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Secretary Tom Vilsack
In recent news, thousands of birds fell from the sky,- poisoned by our own government.

Animals such as beavers, deer, birds and all predators are rountinely poisoned, trapped and shot often on public lands for the benefit of private industries such as livestock producers.

The USDA even has a name for this mass poisoning program: Bye Bye Blackbird. Through the use of poisons such as DRC-1339, the USDA has killed more than four million birds over the last several years, reports Truthout (http://www.truth-out.org/bye-bye-blackbird-usda-acknowledges-a-hand-o...).

We don't want our tax dollars used for killing wildlife. Develope non-lethal methods of control.
