Australia to impose curfew on cats to stop them pushing other animals to extinction

On March 6, Australia will impose a strict "curfew" on cats, a move aimed at stopping cats from pushing other animals to extinction.。Under the new rules, cat owners will face limits on the number of cats they keep。In addition, they must rope their cat to leave the property。Experts believe that mandatory "captivity" for cats means that many cats who escape will face "death sentences."。It is reported that Australia, as an independent maritime continent, its ecosystem lacks the stimulation and relative occlusion of other species, which also leads to Australia's low resistance to biological invasion.。Since the beginning of Australia's colonial history, the cat species has followed the colonial merchant ships to the land of Australia, other continents seemingly harmless cats, to Australia has become a professional wildlife killer.。Australia has five million domestic cats and three million stray cats.。These cats hunt native animals in large numbers。Statistics show that the number of birds killed by cats in Australia each year can reach 3.7.7 billion。Mammals hunted by cats have even broken the 1 billion mark, reaching 11.4.7 billion。And unlike the creatures killed on other continents, 40% of the creatures that are preyed on in Australia are unique to Australia, and if you don't intervene in time, these unique wildlife will be completely killed by cats.。In Australia, 27 species of native animals have become extinct, such as the dolphin-footed kangaroo, the desert kangaroo, and New Zealand's Stephen Island alien, which was completely extinct due to the invasion of wildcats.。Every year, the Australian government has to invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to eliminate wildcats, and even resort to extreme means such as drone dosing and musket hunting.。
