A rodent control pilot using rat fertility control products is being conducted on Cranston and Sheridan Streets by WISDOM Good Works, a non-profit group focused on humane animal population control, and has yielded results that could lead to this strategy potentially helping other areas in the future.
The pilot program, which is entirely funded by WISDOM Good Works, has the support of the city council and various city agencies with the hope to be able to expand and support the efforts of the Mayor’s Rodent Action Plan.
WISDOM’s Co-Founder Dr. Loretta Mayer has been a friend, colleague and mentor for many years. I became a WISDOM Good Works Board Member because of its commitment to humanely control animal overpopulation around the world.
I am approaching my 75th Birthday on July 8, 2024. It is a very special time to pause and reflect on all things past, present, and future. Indeed, a lot of wisdom has been acquired and a lot more to be realized. My blessings have been many, and I have had the good fortune to live a dream, making this planet a better place for all living beings. You are all a part of that dream.
WISDOM’s impactful presence in our community shines through our diverse array of projects and events, each designed to foster connection, education, and positive change.
