Here....Kitty, Kitty, Kitty! (Click)
Jonah has an article on a proposal being mulled in Wisconsin to let people shoot feral cats because they (the cats) are taking out such a large percentage of the local bird population.
I'm sorry but I find this story to be quite amusing, in part because of the whole Granny/Tweety/Sylvester image that Jonah conjures up, but also because of his larger point about how pure anthropomorphic emotionalism infects so much of the environmental debate. Call it the "Bambi Effect". Go ahead - it's been done many times before.
