R.A.T.S.! The Ongoing Fight Against Wildlife Poison

This colorful graphic novel tells the story of how a large coalition of people and groups took action to help protect wildlife from rodenticides in California. An engaging read for adults and kids alike!

Raptors Are the Solution (R.A.T.S.) educates the public about the dangers of rat and rodent poisons in the food web. RATS informs people about the ecological role of wild birds of prey, and work to eliminate toxic rodenticides to prevent further poisonings of wildlife, children, and pets. They envision a healthy, functioning food web in which every organism remains poison free.

Author's note: This book is based on a true, unfinished story. It is a local story but it is also a national story and an international story because wildlife are at risk from rat poisons everywhere. And activists, legislators, and lawyers are stepping up to help. We hope our story inspires more people to take action.
