Look at this fucking psychopath. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/moral-cost-of-cats-180960505/ … Wants to genocide wild cats, who are friends of humanity, to preserve wild birds, who are not. Or so he claims; but this is as absurd as wiping out wolves to save deer. That's not how ecosystems work.

Seems like a drastic solution when: 1) there's little evidence this is causing a crisis in bird/mammal populations; 2) the claim of how many animals cats kill seems ... a bit shaky to me.

There's also 3) a lot of FUD junk science about toxoplasma. The whole movement is creepy.

My understanding is that effects on humans are probably overblown for the same reasons almost all coverage of medical issues is overblown. But effects on wildlife are *insanely* exaggerated. "kill cats because...toxoplasma is killing _rolls dice_ SEA OTTERS!"
