Feral Cats
If, as the pro-cat people say, "the cats are spayed and neutered," why are they still there?
Feral cats are very adaptable and very destructive. Nationwide, they are estimated to kill millions of birds, small mammals and reptiles. The idea of removing the coyotes to protect the cats is counter-intuitive: If a population of 150 "wild" cats is being decimated by two coyotes, they are not truly wild. They have lost some of their natural survival skills but have retained some of their domestic killing and eating skills.
Maybe more photos and stories about the "slaughter" of precious little kitties by big, bad coyotes will cause people to think twice before they "liberate" their one-time "pets."
Better yet, call PETA and ask those loons to deal with the problem. They're the ones who say people should not keep cats, dogs and other "wild" animals as pets. Make pet owners put chips in their pets. When one is killed in the wild, let the former owner pick up the tab for a decent burial -- complete with flowers and music.
Coyotes belong in the wild. Kitty cats do not.
Cats
Get rid of the feral cats, each one comsumes a small mammal, bird or reptile a day. 150 cats X 365 days = 54,750 other lives. Cats have a tremndous impact on the wildlife resource.
Humans Take Sides in Cat-Vs.-Coyote Turf War
i am a cat/dog lover, but i also respect and care for wildlife:
i think that it is very cruel from an animal lover just to say kill coyotes because they are killing domestic animals.
Lets look at the issue and make sure both are considered.
lets be fair to both, keep the cats as they use to be free on campus, and have the dept of wildlife remove the coyotes to a remote location where they can also find their natural food and continue to be wild as intended.
