[tn-bird] Re: [Fwd: Yards as a wildlife hazard? (other than windows andcats)]


We should probably avoid this topic, but when anyone starts talking about
pets running wildlife, I remind them that we have gotten rid of almost all
predators...surely we need a few carnivores out there eating what are
naturally meant to be prey animals. I also remind people that dogs ran
wildlife for thousands and thousands of years. It is only a recent
invention of man that they should be kept up. The real problem for wildlife
is too many #@$%*& human  beings in the world. I had better stop there...
