PETA angry over plan to control Guam’s snake population with toxic dead mice

“Animal activists have dismissed as ‘absurd’ and ‘cruel’ the American government’s plans to bombard Guam from the air with poisoned dead mice in a bid to curtail the spread of invasive snakes.  The US air drop over the the Pacific island is due to commence in the spring, and is aimed at addressing the problems caused by non-native brown tree snakes. Having hitched a ride to the island some 60 years ago on military ships, the colony of reptiles have been deemed responsible for killing off native bird species, biting human inhabitants and knocking out electricity by slithering onto power lines.”
