Humans yet again! We go on introducing non-native species without thinking about the consequences. Somehow we just don't get it....we go on making the same mistakes, year after year.
You are quite right, Catherine. We caused this problem in the first place, so we have a strong moral obligation to find a humane solution. BTW I couldn't find any reference in the article to the suggestion of children being given guns to shoot them. That sort of crazy idea would only be possible in the USA, surely? I didn't think guns could be given to children in Australia, although I don't know the law there very well. Such an appalling idea would only reinforce the idea in young brains that killing is OK.
