Screenshot of a tweet by Mike Primavera (@primawesome). It reads, "My neighbor told me coyotes keep eating his outdoor cats so I asked how many cats he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets a new cat afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding shelter cats to coyotes and then his daughter started crying."

And bad for the cats (pesticides) and pregnant women (toxoplasmosis). Right?

But ya, they hunt for fun. As for how much success they meet, it depends.

    toxoplasmosis is a particular syndrome. In pregnant women toxoplasma gondii it will completely destroy the fetus’s brain (no immune system yet).

    in healthy people it does all sorts of weird things to your personality… some links to schizophrenia but the jury is out on that.
