Humans can sustain a large density of cats that wasn't possible in the wild. If it's a pet cat, don't let it hunt. It will imbalance the ecosystem by adding too many predators who don't depend on the prey for sustenance

Fake news. Birds aren't real.

so... cats are the most effective way to combat birds?

Not a lick of urban sprawl in your fancy graphic. I wonder why?

Are you under the impression that being against urban sprawl is an unpopular opinion on Lemmy?

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 1 points 26 minutes ago (1 children)

Im under the impression that saying that cats are the end of birds is asinine when all we do as humans is destroy habitat for all fauna.

Overly dramatic people who think their meat comes from a store are the same people who make this argument about cats.

Get over it, cats are not the genocidal maniacs you make them out to be, WE ARE.

Maybe letting cats out is one of the many ways we destroy habitat, and calling it out is valid?

How would you quantify that?

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Buildings, automobiles, power lines......

Which is not the same as the effects of urban sprawl destroying their habitat (however this is obviously impossible to quantify)
