In 2020, California took a giant step towards protecting wildlife by passing California
Assembly Bill 1788, which places a moratorium on the class of poisons known as Second
Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides. These dangerous poisons are directly responsible
for weakening and killing wildlife and pets.
Silver Lake Together applauds organizations like CLAW and the Silver Lake Wildlife
Sanctuary, which has been instrumental in supporting AB 1788 and advocating to
preserve safe habitats for Silver Lake’s precious wildlife. But there is more work to be
done. We look forward to providing information that helps residents and stakeholders
understand Silver Lake’s wildlife are also members of our community and deserve our
protection.
