In this distressing footage, Justin Hill expresses his anguish over the use of the bird pesticide Avitrol, which has been causing significant harm to pigeons. He recounts a moment when he discovered a pigeon suffering from poisoning while caring for rescued birds. "I was providing breakfast to the rescues when I heard flapping outside, only to find it was the pigeon in distress," he explained. "Realizing it was poisoned, I faced the painful decision to alleviate its suffering. It's a harsh reality, but releasing them from their pain is part of my duty to protect them." Justin reflects on the countless other birds affected by this toxic bait, lamenting, "It's heartbreaking to see these creatures endure such agony while some profit from their suffering. I'm just one individual fighting against an overwhelming tide of cruelty. But I will persist in my efforts; these animals deserve our empathy and respect."

00:16It's very indicative to avatrol poisoning, and I know that from my stupid time as a pest control agent.

00:29kill what they call pest birds.
00:31And this is what it does to them.
00:32It is not a slow, or it is not a fast death.
00:36It is a very slow, suffering death.
00:38The only thing that I can do for this guy, probably, at this point, because he's well beyond being charcoal
00:42-induced,
00:43is putting him out of his misery, because he is going to just suffer and suffer until he shuts down.
00:48Don't call your exterminator for birds, you guys.
00:51Go get the little spikes and put them on your fucking houses.
00:54This is not okay.
00:56This guy didn't need to suffer.
