• Direct Mortality of Birds from Anthropogenic Causes (2015, unknown): “…selection of cats with satellite tracking technology (Recio et al. 2014); (b) documented cat predation events, including the species killed, using cat-mounted cameras (Loyd et al. 2013); and (c) identified bird species that face a high risk of extinction from predation (Bonnaud et al. 2012).”
• Are urban systems beneficial, detrimental, or indifferent for biological invasion? (2017, background): “For example, introduced domestic cats are responsible for extremely high predation rates on songbirds in urban areas (Loyd et al. 2013).”
• How many reptiles are killed by cats in Australia? (2018, background): “…given that studies elsewhere indicate that pet cats typically return home with a relatively small proportion of prey actually taken (Blancher 2013), with estimates of this proportion from studies on other continents being 12.5% (Maclean 2007), 23% (Loyd et al. 2013), and 30% (Kays andDeWan2004).”
• Introduced cats (Felis catus) eating a continental fauna: The number of mammals killed in Australia (2019, background): “…have been undertaken in 304 Australia) indicate that pet cats typically return home with only a proportion of the prey they have 305 killed (Blancher 2013): reported estimates are 8.8% (Krauze‐Gryz et al. 2012), 12.5% (Maclean 2007), 306 23% (Loyd et al. 2013), and 30% (Kays and DeWan 2004).”
• How many birds are killed by cats in Australia (2017, background): “5% (Maclean, 2007), 23% (Loyd et al., 2013), 30% (Kays and DeWan, 2004) and 50% (George, 1974).”
• Habitat urbanization and its effects on birds (2015, methodology): “A further important caveat of this method has been also demonstrated by a recent paper from the USA (Loyd et al. 2013).”
