These rare birds have been decimated by introduced species namely rats, cats, dogs, possums and stoats.I am completely in favour of hunting ferral introduced species. They are not in danger and are wrecking havoc with endemic species in many many countries.

11 1:42 pm PDT, Jun 10   D. Northrup Fletcher California United States I am not a Hunter, and I really don't have the brass to pull the trigger on an animal; however I live in a semi-rural town and the local cat population has exploded. One example would be the cat that has produced atleast 3 litters in the last 1.5 years, she is mildly tame, but her kittens however always become full feral because she will not alow anyone near them till its far too late in their developement to become tame and live with humans. The local Animal control sevices are compleatly impotent to these animals, there is simply no way to catch them without a multitude of traps that are no doubt far more traumatizing and painful for an animal that will be eventually put to sleep than a simple gunshot out of the blue. I belive that in rural areas people should have free reign on any feral animal without a tag that shows no sign of "tameness". However in semi-rural areas the Animal control services should have the ability (after consulting three naughboors for ownership of the animal, anyone whos not home is a negetive) To put the animal/s in question the sleep on the spot. I have had cats and dogs all my life and anyone who has not put forth the least amount of effort to control or atleast fix their animal has absolutely no moral right to protest the death of what is no more than a stray animal, whether they leave food out for it or not.  
10 6:13 pm PDT, May 24   Barbara Tomlinson Washington United States Not a hunter. But a birdlover. It is unfortunate that this has to be so; but, there is NO TIME, time is running out for many irreplaceable species. We need Earth's diversity. We all kill SOMETHING living so that something else can live; if only bacteria, or mosquitoes, or flies; or our food. That's the way Creation was set up to be.

4 1:02 pm PDT, May 17   Deric Quesenberry Virginia United States Yes. But if we do not hunt these creatures, more than 139 million birds will die annually in WI. That will soon cause more than 5 native species to go extinct because of this un-natural pest. Lets take a page from Hawaii and wild pigs and stop these wild cats.

Allow and encourage hunting of feral animals

We the undersigned call upon all governments of the world to legalise and encourage the hunting of feral animals in rural and wilderness areas, especially those animals that pose a threat to biodiversity. We accept that this is a necessary measure to stem the tide of extinction. We wish to correct the mistakes of our ancestors. We believe that those who consider only the suffering caused by our actions while ignoring the suffering that results from continued inaction are more concerned with their own mental welfare than the welfare of wild animals, or simply do not understand the nature of the problems we face. The more humane methods that are continually cited as an alternative are not workable. Let them try to solve the problem their way. If they succeed there will be no feral animals for us to hunt. When they fail, we must not let them force their failures upon us.

Global invasive species database:

http://www.issg.org/database/species/search.asp?st=100ss&fr=1&sts=sss

"Invasive species have been recognised globally as a major threat to biodiversity (the collected wealth of the world’s species of plants, animals and other organisms) as well as to agriculture and other human interests."

United Nations convention on biodiversity:

Global biodiversity assessment:

http://www.dhushara.com/book/globio/ass.htm

An underlying causes of the loss and degradation of biodiversity is failure of people to consider the long-term consequences of their actions, often due to a basic lack of knowledge.

The specific mechanisms by which the underlying causal factors result in the reduction and loss of populations, the extinction of species and the transformation and degradation of ecological communities include the introduction of non native species.
