Cats are good eh . Keep defending them .

The Australian government says there are approximately 20 million feral cats in Australia. Dr. Jim Radford, a conservationist with Bush Heritage Australia, told VICE News that feral cats are the "single biggest threat" to protecting many of Australia's threatened species. "There's hardly a part of the continent that hasn't been touched by them," he said. And according to Threatened Species Commissioner Gregory Andrews, over 100 species are currently under threat from feral cats. "Each feral cat eats between three and 20 native animals a day. That adds up to a conservative 80 million native animals a day," he told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation on Monday
