Animal abuse is rarely an isolated issue. It is often connected to domestic violence, child abuse, elder abuse, bullying, and other forms of violence within our communities.

Phil Arkow of the National LINK Coalition joined Dr. Jim Lombella of CFA to lead an educational webinar exploring the LINK between animal cruelty and human violence.

Your town can take a stand for wildlife 🦉🐾

Communities are already stepping up to ban deadly Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides (SGARs) on town-owned property — and yours can too. These toxic poisons don’t just kill rodents. They harm owls, hawks, foxes, pets, and other wildlife that are exposed through the food chain.

The movement is growing, and you have the power to bring it to your own community. Speak up, organize locally, and help push for safer, wildlife-friendly solutions. Your town could be next!
