Kill the Cats

Kill the Cats

The inconvenient truth is that cats kill more American birds, particularly songbirds, than DDT and pesticides ever did.



Wisconsin is considering allowing residents to shoot feral cats in part because a respected study found that felines kill between 7.8 million and 217 million birds in Wisconsin alone. Data from a Michigan study suggest that some 75 million birds are killed there just in the summer alone.

A non-random survey of four Feline-Americans finds 100% opposition to this. Must be a plot by Bill Frist supporters.



Of course, according to the stories my northwoods Wisconsin relatives used to tell, kitty killing is long since commonplace.
