It sounds like the numbers they're dealing with may be well beyond what could be controlled by cats. Additionally, they may be wary, as Australia is already a case study in what can happen as a result of introducing one species to control another's population: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cane_toads_in_Australia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cane_toads_in_Australia
- underseacables 5y agoI once had a cat that lived in a work shed. Almost every day he brought me something dead. I hear you but it was just the logical thought to come to mind that I wondered why individuals didn’t have cats, or what the cats were doing. Granted now I’ve got a cat that can’t be bothered to even chase something, she just ..looks at it.
