I think Brigitte Bardot would spend her time more productively defending other animals such as orangutans, lemurs and rhinos:

Indeed.

Where does the math make sense to her.  2 million cats day in day out, 75 million native animals day in day out.  I have herd a few times we have an estimated 20 million cats, so the makes the nightly kill of native animals staggering. I have seen a cat as big as a cattle dog on the fringes of the Simpson, food is not abundant out there it seems to me, but it didn't get that big eating grass hoppers.
