Trump Administration Allows Cyanide Bombs on Public Lands
The Trump administration has lifted a ban on the use of cyanide bombs on public lands. This action was taken as the administration nears its end. These devices, also known as 'cyanide bombs,' are used for predator control. The decision reverses a previous policy that had restricted their deployment. This decision allows for the use of these devices, which are due to their potential harm to non-target species.
