Yes, I read this story, very sad. Many people sincerely want to help, and to be seen "heroes', while causing more harm. It's plebbit-tier narcissism to attempt to be the hero instead of stepping back and letting wildlife experts do what they are professionally trained to do.
Yeah this last summer during the drought we had here I had a shallow planter of water I kept full of fresh water for the squirrels and the birds, and my neighbor has a feeder she keeps full of food for them, I also watered my lawn and trees so the earthworms would come up for the birds to eat. There are things you can do to help wildlife and still let the wildlife be wild.
So when wild rodents are invading and destroying your home, you should just let it go? I have a feeling you don't live somewhere where this is an issue. Rats are wildlife, too, are you ok with rats taking over your apartment/condo? Thousands of rats shitting all over, chewing through your wiring and walls, crawling all over your children and pets, biting them and infecting them with disease? That should be fine with you, just wildlife being wild, right? I'd be happy to send you a pair, so you can have a few thousand around in a few months and experience the joys of wildlife just being wild in your home. I'll make you a deal, I will let wildlife destroy my home and send you the yearly bill for the tens of thousands of dollars in damages. Sounds good? You are obtuse, get a clue, u/SassyLass..
