Beth Slate works with the Agriculture Department in Contra Costa County. She has been a part of the bird luring project, which has included welcome mats and 20 raptor perches near the burrow colonies to attract the carnivorous predators.

Slate says: "We want to encourage the hawks which are a lot more suburban, residential friendly to reduce the squirrel population."
