Netting was put up on the pier to prevent birds from roosting. As often happens with netting, over time it developed holes through which birds entered then couldn’t find their way out. We notified pier officials, and they have fixed it so that birds won’t get stuck anymore and are also looking into our recommendation to use safer deterrents.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
