[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You are missing the point. You seem to think that prey should only be subjected to what it is "evolutionarily" designed to be hunted by. Are deer somehow"evoluntionarily" designed to be shot by hunters? Or should we stop shooting them because guns are not native to North America? Birds are at risk of predation, regardless of whether they are "evolutionarily" ready or not. Evolution happens whether you like it or not.[/quote] Not a good comparison. Deer used to have natural predators - cougars, wolves, coyote and more, depending on the region - until humans killed so many of them off. That's why you see too many deer and culling efforts today. Sure, birds are at risk for predation, by hawks, other raptors, snakes. But this brings consequences. If we let an introduced species - cats - wipe out certain bird populations, then the hawks and raptors will starve and start to die out, and then we really may get overrun by rats and mice.[/quote]
