Tom -- nobody has claimed that the feral cats don't kill any rats or mice. But you DID claim that the feral cats were "soley" responsible for the rodents' decline, and that is simply not true.

The truth is that HABITAT DESTRUCTION caused the decline of these endangered rodents. Predators like dogs, raccoons, black rats, cats, and pythons are ADDING to the problem -- but they did not CAUSE it.

The truth is also that actions ARE being taken to control the feral cat population.

Now -- please stop wasting everyone's time, or at least let's see those research papers that you claimed "proved" that the cats were "soley" responsible for the rodents' problems.
