Can you help us promote this upcoming event to help reduce the use of
SGARs? We are launching a Rescue Boston Wildlife group with a kick-off
event at Boston Nature Center on Wednesday, May 14th 6:30 – 8pm. This is
event is an open to the public, hybrid Zoom event:

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 is supporting Rescue
Boston Wildlife <https://www.facebook.com/groups/1038109995047543> to
protect raptors and other predators by regulating rodent poison. Join Mass
Audubon and New England Wildlife Center <https://www.newildlife.org/>'s CEO
Zak Mertz with the hawk "Falco" to learn how rodent poisons harm wildlife
and get involved in the fight to reduce their use in Boston. Wildlife
advocates from all Boston neighborhoods are welcome!
