And when the mice kill enough sea birds they’ll starve

So, if the average temperature of the island was 2 degrees less, all the mice would die? BS.

Easy.

Release cats to eat the mice.

Release dogs to eat the cats.

Release goats to eat the dogs.

Release cows to eat the goats.

Release horses to eat the cows.

That’s nothing. Climate Change has caused my cat Mr. Whiskers to be stumped by complex math problems, problems that he could easily solve before.

I’ll be applying for a government grant to study this worrisome phenomenon.

“their breeding season has been extended,...

" females can have four or five litters a year, each with seven or eight babies."

Anybody that knows mice (apparently not these stooges) knows that mice breed all year long.....sheesh!
