The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A Review of Feral Cat Eradication on Islands (2004, background): “Predation by cats has been directly responsible for numerous island extinctions of mammals (Mellink 1992; Tershy et al. 2002), reptiles (Iverson 1978; Mitchell et al. 2002), and birds ( Jehl & Parks 1983; Lever 1994; Dowding & Murphy 2001; Veitch 2001).”
Mammal invaders on islands: impact, control and control impact (2003, background): “Researchers and managers are increasingly aware of community level interactions because pest control can have unforeseen repercussions such as mesopredator (or competitor) release and prey switching (Murphy & Bradfield, 1992; Dowding & Murphy, 2001).”
A global review of the impacts of invasive cats on island endangered vertebrates (2011, background): “…with qualitative reviews of impacts on mainland or large islands of continental origin (Australia: Dickman, 1996; New Zealand: Taylor, 2000; Dowding & Murphy, 2001; Gillies & Fitzgerald, 2005; Great Britain: Dyczkowski & Yalden, 1998; Woods et al., 2003) and partial reviews by Fitzgerald…”
The diet of feral cats on islands: a review and a call for more studies (2011, background): “…and global extinctions of many island endemic species making them leading contributors to biodiversity loss (Diamond 1989; Fritts and Rodda 1998; Balmford 1996; Stattersfield and Capper 2000; Atkinson 2001; Dowding and Murphy 2001; Courchamp et al. 2003; Long 2003; Aguirre-Muñoz et al. 2008).”
