Wildlife Services is literally poisoning wildlife and public lands.</p>
<p style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:18px;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-stretch:normal;line-height:1.31;letter-spacing:normal;color:#373737;margin-bottom:10px">The program discretely places traps, snares, and poisons where children and companion animals play, with deadly results. One of these “M-44” cyanide bombs even poisoned a child, killing his dog, while the two were playing on public land. Wildlife Services’ indiscriminate traps and poisons not only kill family dogs, but their wild cousins—native foxes, coyotes, and wolves. In fact, raptors, cougars, bobcats, black bears, beavers, prairie dogs, grizzlies, and countless other animals have also died at the hands of the wildlife-killing program.</p>
