Sentences with phrase «high cat density»

It may be, suggest Sims et al., that, because high cat density corresponds closely to high housing density, this measure is also an indication of those areas «where humans provide more supplementary food for birds.»

When targeted and large enough scale, TNR also decreases shelter intake in areas of high cat density.

Inland areas with low rainfall and more open vegetation had higher cat densities than most coastal, wetter areas, but only after extensive rain.

It's difficult enough to show a direct link between observed predation and population impacts; suggesting a causal connection between high cat densities and declining bird populations is misleading and irresponsible.

Forty of these species are often present in urban or suburban landscapes, where impacts of high cat densities on bird populations have been demonstrated elsewhere.

Human - inhabited areas and known TNR (trap - neuter - release) colonies are shown because of the higher cat densities observed near those areas.

The higher cat densities observed near some developed areas may be spillover from overcrowded conditions associated with TNR colonies and unsterilized pets, which may affect native prey populations in areas immediately adjacent to colonies.

Not exact matches

Consequently, cat populations reach high densities near human settlements, so they impose relatively strong hunting pressure on prey populations (Baker et al. 2005; Sims et al. 2008; Thomas et al. 2012).

The real «monster of depravity» is this: every year that TNR caretakers are allowed to subsidize high densities of impractical cats by feeding them and loving them to pieces, billions more wild birds and small mammals are killed by these cats.

On islands and in fragmented urban and suburban habitats unnaturally high densities of cats are not only capable of reducing or eradicating populations of birds and small mammals, they can out - compete native predators like foxes and weasels.

When cats are sheltered and fed by people, they can exist at densities up to 100 times higher than similarly sized native predators.

Further, the influence of fire intensity on selection of habitat by cats was strongly affected by whether the habitats in question supported high densities of small mammals: sites in mammal - rich habitats that had recently been burnt at high intensity were especially strongly favoured.

What Legge meant by that, the University of Queensland summary of her findings explained, was that «in addition to strategic cat control in bushland areas,» where cats have already long been massacred as rapidly as they can be found, «there is a need to address feral cats in heavily urbanized areas where their population density could be 30 times higher than in natural environments.»

We argue that the behavioural capacity of feral cats to undertake long - distance excursions to exploit transient hunting opportunities results in significantly higher total predator pressure on prey, and helps to explain how low - density cat populations could have large impacts on small - mammal abundance at landscape scales.

Allowing cats outdoors is not a good option in areas of high - density housing, cars and predators.

CONCENTRATED ENERGY A higher energy density leads to smaller meal sizes and decreases digestive workload in cats with digestive sensitivity.

Additionally, because they are subsidized by human care givers, cats occur at higher densities and compete with native predators for food, thus making it more difficult for native predators to feed themselves and their young.

Rabinowitz makes two points which really make you sit up: 1) conservation groups really need to be held accountable for their efforts at big cat conservation, and 2) even with massively reduced habitat tiger populations could be ten times higher than they are today.Rabinowitz says that the world's 2500 - 3000 wild tigers live on just 5 - 7 % of their former range, but even that small about of remaining habitat «could probably hold up to 30,000 tigers right now at reasonable densities.»
