City of Corona – Parks & Community Services Department

We are demanding the immediate removal of all poison bait traps from Serfas Club Park and a commitment to humane, non-lethal wildlife management practices in all Corona parks.

Serfas Club Park is a space cherished by the community — a place where families, children, and nature lovers come to enjoy the outdoors and peacefully observe wildlife. It is heartbreaking and appalling to discover that poison bait traps have been set throughout the park to target squirrels and rabbits — animals who call this park home.

This inhumane method of wildlife control is unacceptable and poses risks not just to these animals, but also to pets, children, and the broader ecosystem. There are ethical, humane alternatives to managing wildlife — poisoning them should never be an option in a public space meant to bring people and nature together.

We, the undersigned, demand:

The immediate removal of all poison bait traps from Serfas Club Park.

Full transparency from the city regarding any future pest control efforts in public parks.

A public commitment to humane, non-lethal wildlife management in all City of Corona parks.

Let’s protect the integrity of our parks and the lives of the animals who live in them.
