    There is a great concern that the correct assessment of the public's opinion of the forest management is not reaching the Forest Management Personnel, because of the special interest groups that have the time and money to prepare and present what the special interest groups want. These lobbists are great speakers and have the time and support to be at all meetings and present. The small public is not heard over the large group professionals.

  • A 2003 study in the journal Mammal Review (view it as a PDF) suggested that cats predate 5 million reptiles and amphibians, 27 million birds and 57 million mammals in the UK each year. In the US, some estimates say 100 million birds are killed by cats each year (a Forest Service report by Erickson et al in 2005) and “more than a billion small mammals”, according to a study published this year by the American Bird Conservancy (view it as a PDF).

      I like how he tries to back up his statements with facts from published research, although the first link doesn't work. Bummer.

    Tiddle's law. Too many cats can destroy wildlife. They can be sweet and cuddly but a nusence at the same time.
