In other news, I don't believe for a moment that this guy was primarily interested in saving endangered birds. There were other ways to eliminate the presence of the cat. Outside of life & death situations, e.g., a hungry bear emerging from the woods to menace your toddler in your backyard, there are always other ways. Truth: the guy had a gun and seized upon what he regarded as a nominally defensible opportunity to kill something with it. Happens all the time...but most target practice animals don't have a human advocate. Tough luck, buddy.
