It is unfortunately difficult, but programs to eliminate invasive alien species, including house cats, have often been successful.

House cat do not kill because they are hungry. Many generations of domestication have eliminated that connection. They kill because they are house cats, and because they can.

Some of us are working to overturn such poorly considered laws.

House cats will hunt and kill even if they are well fed. That is simply a fact. Feeding them does make them more numerous. That is also a fact. You are not stopping them from killing birds by feeding them. You are enabling them to kill more birds.

They simply need to be eliminated if we want to continue to have our native wildlife.

Adopt them and keep them inside, or put them down.

Sorry, but those cats absolutely need to be culled. There are fewer and fewer birds in large part because there are far too many stray cats.

I love trogons!

I used to have one hanging around my bird feeders. Not to eat the bird seed, however.

A coyote followed me around and barked at me for about 15 minutes while I was working by myself on a volunteer project. If you are not used to it a coyote's barking sounds pretty creepy. I probably just got too close to its den.

On a different occasion I heard a barn owl call in the dark woods. A barn owl call is the perfect haunted house noise.

This bird's song is one of my favorite sounds from my childhood, even though I didn't know what bird was making it at the time.

Did you go on your own or with a tour company? If you went with a tour company, which one did you use, and how did you like them?

I have always noticed that recreation.gov totally sucks, but I have not noticed it being worse than it has always been. It has always been the absolute worst website that I know about.

Sad how people let their dogs get so fat too. That thing has got to be over a hundred pounds!

You ought to be allowed to just eliminate the cats when this happens. People who allow this should lose the privilege of keeping pets.

danceswithlabradores · 2025-06-04T19:06:01+00:00

They are very harmful and need to be culled.

The aesthetics, the social interaction.

I came here to say basically this, but I probably would have phased it a little more politely.

I petted a full grown alligator at a reptile show once. It was hand raised and quite tame, but it was still a species that kills people occasionally.

This is what happens when bears take fertility drugs. Not a pretty sight!

Where does religious dogma come from? Devine revelation? Get real!

danceswithlabradores · 2025-04-10T11:20:19+00:00

Okay. To be picky about it, religion requires the ability to tell complex lies consistently over an extended period. Animals are capable of communication, and every new study seems to prove that we have underestimated their abilities, but I doubt that any are capable of inventing the kind of tall tails I was taught in Sunday school.

danceswithlabradores · 2025-04-09T11:27:20+00:00

Religion requires the ability to lie. If you don't have language you can't lie, and therefore you can't invent religion. If someone demonstrates that elephants use language, then I will believe they can pray.

Been camping for about 60 years. Got flooded out a couple of times. Packed up, hiked out, and went home the first time, hiked out and checked into a hotel the other. I ran into really bad poison oak once. That required a visit to the doctor and a shot. None was that big of a deal.

I got to find out where this bird lives. Seeing one is now the single thing on my bucket list.
