Domestic Cat Density is Generally Not Associated with Variation in Avian Risk Assessment in a Mega-City

2025-10-26

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Domestic cats ( <italic>Felis catus</italic> ) kill an estimated 1.3–4.0 billion birds annually in the United States and are a major source of mortality for urban birds. While their lethal impacts are well documented, fewer studies address sublethal effects such as changes in avian risk assessment. We analyzed a dataset of 1,120 experimental approaches conducted by human observers o...
