They would realize that wild owls fly silently through the night and grab unwary rodents, not unsuspecting packages of processed cow meat. A pet cat raising orphaned ducklings! That is, until the ducklings grow up, are released into a pond, and greet the local feral cat colony as long-lost relatives. How cute!

But there are abundant lizards here, along with small rodents and no shortage of bird-feeders to plunder. I repeat, the sight of a roadrunner moseying around this neighborhood like a contented outdoor cat was a strange one. It’s not easy to reconcile the vision of this quintessential desert bird in McMansion land.

Long before CAT scans, X-rays, blood samples and colonoscopies, physicians used the good sense they were born with: their sense of smell. The sizeable rodents are helping to detect tuberculosis (TB). That’s because bacterias, cancers and infections create unique smells. Sweet, fruity breath could mean diabetes. Liver disease?

Just as the ranger was telling us that we might see wild cats – well, not wild cats, but rather, Wildcats , the wild version of the domestic cat, Felis silvestris lybica , one of those cats popped its head out of the brush about 50 feet beyond her. The most interesting thing about this cat was lack of kitty-cat-ness.

Feral cats have been able to adapt very well in Australia and have grown larger over the years and can survive in areas that you would not expect. Feral cat predation on Pied Oystercatcher eggs. Both climate and terrain will keep some invasive species out of the northern part of Australia.

Inserts in rodent poisons that assure the public they will not kill anything but the offending rats or mice pedal the same questionable claims as those of the snake oil salesmen of bygone days. Our world has changed, and humans have created that change.

He's right with his implication that stopping the seizing of pets and strays simply created a more efficient, effective means of commodifying and torturing dogs and cats. We regularly subject rodents to pain, starvation, solitary confinement, and grotesque disfigurement. It "guarantees humane treatment?" Maybe on paper.

He was a careful and vigilant bird, traits that had saved him from the hawks and the cats on so many occasions while those around him had perished over the years. He was not foolish enough to be drawn to danger out of curiosity. But this was different.

The rodent has been dismembered in some way, but it doesn't appear to have been eaten at all. I have never once seen a cat anywhere in my neighborhood.

Watching birds isn’t much of a challenge if you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting one. In your back yard, if you have a feeder and exclude insects, birds may represent 100% of the animal biomass until either you our your cat walks outside. It made me think that birdwatchers are loafing. Peter and St.

Getting rid of rabbits and goats was something that had been done for many years, but it was generally thought that rats and cats would be impossible to remove from all but the smallest islands. Of particular interest would be the commitment of the islanders to give up having cats as pets. Eradication is an all or nothing business.
