So, what did I just film? Let's find out. You try again. This time close your eyes. What you're hearing are birds, and lots of them. Why do we have so many birds on our property, you think? Let's find out.
That's right. We have so many birds, because we have a dog. And almost every single evening, our dog chases away domesticated cats, that people in the area don't care about. They just let them out. And what these cats do, is to kill native birds.[1]We catch them in our trees. We catch them inside bird nests. And our dog chases them away. And sometimes kills them. Which is okay, because it's not like it's some pet to a little girl or something. It's some baby boomer with too many cats. And whenever they're on our property, she says, "that's not my cat". And when they're on her property, then they're her cats. And legally, none of them are her cats, because they're not registered. They don't have this little chip, as humans probably will need in the future. [inaudible] (?) EU.[2]And therefore, they're technically not even hers. They are stray cats. Don't feel sorry for her. She's the asshole who doesn't lock the cats up in the evening. Instead, she just lets them out. And why would the cats go around on her property? She mows the lawn three times a day. And there's nothing there for them to hide behind. So they prefer our property, filled up with birds and vegetation.
It's not just because our dog chases or kills the cats, though. It's also because we have many different plants here that the birds eat. And we have vegetation, which means that we have all sorts of insects, worms and stuff that the birds eat. There are many endangered species of birds on our property.[3]And they are endangered, not because of cats, but because of cat owners who just don't give a shit, and let these cats kill at random, at will, everything that is native here in Europe. Now, it kind of reminds me of our politicians, you know, but, an another certain species that they let in. Wildcats are native to Europe, and of course, lynx and even cave lions. The problem is the imported African domesticated cat that is given special privilege and protected by human beings. I can't kill a cat that comes into my property, but my dog can. So, thumbs up for the dogs. Domesticated cats kill TENS OF MILLIONS of native birds alone in Europe EVERY YEAR.

- And native endangered lizards, and frogs, and mice and and our chicken. Yes, even rodents are useful for our flora and fauna. E. g. they help open up the soil, enabling it to collect and store water better, and they are food for native predatory birds and foxes. Both rodents and birds often eat SNAILS. So rodents + birds = no snail problem.
