Grand Canyon National Park officials are warning area residents against bringing rodent poisons into the park.
Rodenticides are prohibited within the national park and all its residences. Officials are re-upping their warning about them after a bobcat in South Rim Village was found dead recently with high levels of rodent poison in its system.
The park is offering a no-questions-asked policy to take the poisons away from village residences. And it encourages folks to use snap traps instead.
