The city of San Diego is poisoning the squirrels who live and play along the bluffs above Windansea Beach. 

There are less harmful, more humane ways to manage the Windansea squirrel population.  Killing squirrels with poison not only is dangerous to the poor squirrels. It's also hazardous to birds, other wildlife, and dogs who encounter the poisoned carcasses.

Poisoning the squirrels of Windansea may be the city's most cost-effective option to prevent bluff erosion, but it's also the most cruel and inhumane.

Windansea residents value coexistence with nature. Please contact Mayor Todd Gloria and Council President Joe LaCava to express your opposition to using our taxpayer dollars  to exterminate the squirrels who bring joy and life to our Windansea neighborhood. Urge them to work with city staff, contractors, and concerned community members to identify and adopt a safe and humane alternative to poisoning the squirrels who call Windansea home.
