                 New South Wales, Australia is experiencing an 
overpopulation crisis from mice, which are destroying farmers' crops and 
posing a threat to vulnerable people's health. Unfortunately, NSW 
Agriculture Minister Adam Marshall has proposed an unnatural, short-sighted 
plan to use an extremely powerful poison (he called it "the most powerful 
poison that we can get our hands on") called bromadiolone. The bromadiolone 
will be applied to some of the mice's sources of food.

                  The problem is the poison is so potent it will not only 
kill the mice, but kill a lot of animals up the food chain who feed on them. 
Sign the petition to urge against this choice in mouse control in NSW!

                  Some of the other animals that will die in addition to 
mice are the free-roaming cats that feed on them (including helpful barn 
cats) and birds of prey! Other birds and wildlife may be collateral damage 
as well. NSW Agriculture Minister Marshall doesn't deny that pets, 
livestock, and wildlife will die. There are other pesticide that do not pose 
a threat to other animals they could use instead. Sign the petition to 
demand a ban on using bromadiolone as mouse control in NWS!

                  Thank you,

                         Kelsey

                  P.S. This powerful poison will needlessly kill many 
animals. Sign the petition.
