The FWC was actually proposing going after feral cats before they started picking on us. It turned out to be a bit of a public relations nightmare for them as all the cat lovers screamed about it. I think they got the same kind of resistance when they proposed going after the feral monkeys at silver springs. People are funny like that they love furry things that really do cause problems and in the case of monkeys potentially seriously injure you and they hate snakes which (excepting venomous) in the scheme of things are really all that dangerous.
I also seem to think that there are laws protecting feral horses on federal lands out west which really do inflict ecological damage on the envinroment. go figure
