This is misleading: Habitat destruction and lawns are a much greater threat to birds. If you do not like cats and want them gone that's fine. Don't use false/misleading information to further your point.

Our findings suggest that free-ranging cats cause substantially greater wildlife mortality than previously thought and are likely the single greatest source of anthropogenic mortality for US birds and mammals.

I am not arguing that, I am saying that populations would still be much high if more and more suitable habitat existed. The issue being that you cannot count lack of animals due to habitat via mortality.

... Are you logically sound? None of what I said is mutually exclusive of lawns and habitat destruction.
