Crow Control in the Pearl District – Falconry Abatement Program
Innovative Approach to Addressing the Neighborhood Crow Problem
A Solution to the “Crow Problem” from NWCC’s Executive Director, Chase McPherson
The Challenge: The Crow Crows Shall Return!
Having been part of Downtown Clean and Safe before joining NWCC, I’ve seen firsthand the positive impact that falconry-based bird abatement can have on the community. I’m now reaching beyond NWCC for support and funding to launch a similar program here in the Pearl District—to help us tackle the crow poop problem and keep our neighborhood clean.
