Sarasota News Leader January 3, 2014 After listening to wildly conflicting claims about the quality of care offered to injured seabirds at Save Our Seabirds (SOS) on City Island, the City Commission votes unanimously on July 1 to deepen its probe of the nonprofit. For weeks, former volunteer Greg Para has been leveling serious charges against Save Our Seabirds, describing a facility where Page 70 rats are killing caged birds and where injured birds are being euthanized more quickly than necessary. However, City Purchasing Manager Mary Tucker says she and other staff members conducted an unannounced inspection of SOS and found no reason for concern.
