WOW!! I'll call! I'm glad one of them stopped using the poison but it's not enough. Sheesh, don't they get it? MNH, hello? Preserve what they have but kill what's outside their doors. I don't get it. Hope they change their minds.
I'm calling too! What's happened to these poor birds is a crime!

I'm calling too and I like what you said, Donna about preserving what they have.

Sent 2 emails and will keep sending if I don't hear back. Line was busy when I called. Switchboard overload??

I have been unable to reach either organization on the phone so I sent emails instead. The original post included only the Museum of Natural History's email. Here is an email contact address I found elsewhere for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The more of us who call or write, the better. They may be able to block phone calls, but filling up their email sites should be an equally good way to get their attention. What a disgrace!

Might be more effective if we can identify and direct comments to their sources of funding (foundations, corporations, etc.).

Thank you, Bobbie. Too many people think they can do nothing. The Pale Male / rat poison issue is one example of how those who care for wildlife really can make a difference just by making a phone call or sending an email. This phrase by John Lennon adopted by the Black Panthers and other political groups has been around for a while but really does say it all:
All Power to the People!
All we need to do sometimes is simply step up and answer the call.

I got through to the AMNH and talked to a really nice lady -I pressed the button for volunteers and she forwarded my call to a not so very nice woman but she did listen to what I had to say. I also left a voice mail with the finance fellow there and have also sent out the emails.

Has it never occurred to them that, while they are preserving "Natural History" *inside* their building, they are destroying it *outside*?

I also called The American Museum of Natural History and got through, as well as The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The latter staff member, Linda, gave me her email so that she could compile these statements about using safe alternative rodenticide:
linda.forchetti@metmuseum.org
Just a note: I continue to be so grateful to all the watchers and worriers through this roller-coaster season: Carol, MAK, well...all of you enrich my life!
