https://phys.org/news/2018-07-evidence-feral-cats-preying-critically.html > Researchers from the University of Melbourne photographed a feral cat sitting on top of two nest boxes, attempting to catch possums as they left. Seven feral cats were subsequently captured in the area over a 10-day period. Stomach contents and scat analysis confirmed the remains of Leadbeater's possum in two of the cats' stomachs. These findings are described in research published today in Australian Mammalogy. > University of Melbourne Masters student and lead author Leo McComb said the findings are unexpected.
