Officials in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania, are planning to poison crows because they believe the crows spread West Nile Virus! They will be using avicide-permeated cheese curls. Not only is this a violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, it's a danger to other birds and animals who eat the bait or eat the dead or dying birds. The possibility has also been raised that small children could get into this stuff and eat it. You can read about it here:

Notice the article doesn't say anything about the real culprit in the spread of WNV--mosquitoes. And they claim it's "humane." If you read the comments after the article, fast forward through the stupidity of the few who posted just to hear themselves talk and read the comments near the end.
