Let's see...
Natural selection:
"It is a mechanism of evolution that favors individuals with characteristics better suited to their environment, allowing them to survive, reproduce, and pass those traits on to their descendants."
Is it normal my cat hunting birds ?
"Cats are natural predators, hunting and eating birds. It's an instinctive and normal behavior for them."
It's about balance mate. Natural selection is about evolution over long periods of time. That's not what happened here. It might be natural instinct for cats to hunt, but human influence and domestication has skewed the balance in favour of cats. That has very little to do with natural selection.
I give this cat very little food, she lives most of the time in the fields around the house, i guess she has to kill animals to have energy to survive. I could just give her cat food and prevent her from killing, but guess what, cat foods are made from dead animals. 🤦♂️
I don't particularly care about cats eating animal protein. I believe they should. I mainly care about protecting an ecological balance when possible, which in this case it is. But it sounds and looks like your cat has a wonderful live :)
I assume you are this critical of the ecological damage caused in order to make the computer you are whining about a fucking cat on, right?
I don't believe I'm whining, I love both cats and birds. I'm merely pointing out a way to keep them both. And besides that I'm pointing out a logistical fallacy and the misinterpretation of the term natural selection.
Its a cat. Cats are part of nature. Like all living things. If this single cat throws something out of balance, there are bigger problems thana cat
Let me ask you this. Have you ever witnessed the end result of a cat killing everything in the area and bad things happening ecologically as a result? Because I have seen this exact claim of your many times, yet, I let one of my cats out every night, plus there are multiple strays at any given time. Yet there are still birds, squirrels, snakes, rabbits, chipmunks, etc. This is a narrative that appears to have zero basis. Like all environmental narratives.
Another logical fallacy, this time the anecdotal one. I could give you multiple academic sources (a simple google search would suffice as well), but I don't think anything could convince you really. The fact that your cat hasn't faunacided the whole neighbourhood isn't particularly conving evidence that it's all made up. I wish both you, your cat and all the birds in your neighbourhood well.
