although I will never get the chance to see the passenger pigeon as it had existed…My anscestors robbed me of that experience…..
Here is a newer book to look up for the info on that extinct species:

The writer was not in favor of a program which captures feral cats, neuters and releases them. There’s lots of emotion on all sides of this problem and no easy answers, as far as I can see.
