In regards, to my earlier blog regarding the proposal to allow open season on feral cats in Wisconsin, I've received some feedback. Thankfully, your correspondent hasn't received the response that a UW-Madison professor has. This professor authored a study on game and songbird depredation by feral cats that is being used as the scientific basis for the proposal. According to this morning's Wisconsin State Journal, the prof has received death threats.

The title of the blog is a play on the real dontshootthecat.com website that has sprung up in opposition to the hunting proposal. I'm not making any of this up.
