Takako 🐀<p>Please never buy or use rat poison. It is one of the cruelest deaths wildlife suffers—they bleed internally to death. It also kill predators.</p><p>There’s an alternative—birthControl rat bait—available in most US states.</p><p>Also, I’ve recently read that the trace of rat poison is already seeping into our drinking water in some places.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/rodenticide" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rodenticide</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p>According to the latest NewEngland Wildlife Centers’ email newsletter;</p><p>They’ve been racing to rescue waterfowl drenched in home heating oil seeping into the Muddy River in Boston and Brookline since January.</p><p>Also responding to a drastic spike in avian influenza.</p><p>As well as treating more owls and hawks dying from anticoagulant rat poison—which is also harming the mammals like fox and raccoons who would otherwise keep wild rat population in check.</p><p>Please help them, if you can.<br /><a href="https://www.newildlife.org/donate/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">newildlife.org/donate/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Photos by NEWCS.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BirdFlu" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BirdFlu</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p>The fish in rivers are contaminated with rat poison—this means fish like salmons are contaminated. Also, all rivers eventually connect to sea. If humans don’t stop using rat poisons, all marine animals would be contaminated. Probably they already have been. Yet another reason to avoid seafood. Everything is connected—tangled in the web of life on earth.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/fish" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>fish</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/seafood" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>seafood</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/GoPlantBased" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GoPlantBased</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a> </p><p>“What’s really shocking is that 100% of the fish caught in rivers and the predators that eat these fish are also contaminated [with rat poison].”</p><p>Urban rats - The unknown residents of the underworld (DW Documentary) <br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghaiiiGmAsY" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=ghaiiiGmAs</span><span class="invisible">Y</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p>The hawk saw me as if to say, “oh, not you again! There went my supper!” Well, it wasn’t my fault, MrCooper. Better luck next time.</p><p>Then, I started thinking… maybe, the hawk knows that the animals here are poison-free?? </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p>… thought the hawk-in-motion photo looked cool, but these might look better at first glance?</p><p>Anyway, NewEngland Wildlife Centers recently sent out a letter that most cases of raptors admitted to their hospitals are due to secondhand rodenticide poisoning, and they need help. <a href="https://www.newildlife.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">newildlife.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Pls. leave the rodents alone. Let the nature’s pros like raptors take care.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/raptors" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>raptors</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/hawks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hawks</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wildlife</span></a></p>
Takako 🐀<p>Looks like someone went to eat from the neighbor’s poison box too much.</p><p>We got this new BirthControl Rat Food solids, which no one went for for 2 days. So I showed it to Annie who trusts me, and now they’re nibbling it, thank goddess.</p><p>Rats have neophobia, and it takes a while for them to eat suspicious new food. But with Annie okaying, they got to it overnight.</p><p>I hope this poor rat was the only unlucky one. Rest in peace, love.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BanRatPoison" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BanRatPoison</span></a></p>
