when I see statements like— “recent research suggests that rural free-ranging domestic cats in Wisconsin may be killing between 8 and 217 million birds each year.” I question the research, or the lack of research, and figure the author just made a SWAG.
8 - 217 is one heck of a range, isn’t it? In other words, “researches” don’t have a clue. I think this “cats killing birds” hysteria is all out of whack. Our two house cats are way too lazy to catch anything but the occasional bug.
