In the United States alone, outdoor cats kill approximately 2.4
billion birds every year. "

Time for a(n outdoor) cat cull methinks ... unless they could be
rounded up and trained to assist the blind, detect drugs / money /
weapons / diseases, protect livestock and people or we can find a
suitable recipe for them. 'Cat a l'orange' anyone. ;-)



Squirrels are another bird predator.


And another instance of non native animals causing problems (grey
squirrels over here and American / Signal Crayfish etc).

Do grey squirrels taste like cat? ;-)
