First, we are not talking about animal over population, it is a much bigger topic out of scope. In my opinion, the problem can only be resolved from top to down at the same time, meaning both supply and demand need to be throttled, and for the existing pets population, all the cost should be lowered especially the medical charge, because the biggest reason people abandon their pets is because the medical expense is much higher than the cost of buying a pet itself, they tend to buy new pets instead which in turn increase the demand and the existing population. Everybody knows the worst case scenario is to abandon their pets in the nature, when the pets are out in the nature, they probably start to over populate to expand their territory... |
