Garret Mountain in West Paterson, designated "an important bird area" by the National Audubon Society, is being threatened, environmental advocates say, according to a report in the Herald News.

The population of at least a dozen species at the preserve has dropped because of human encroachment, pollution, deer overpopulation and the growth of invasive plants, according to the local environmental group Friends of Garret Mountain, the paper reported.
