Stray cats are a major environmental threat in Australia. They have contributed to the extinction of native animal species. Instead of trapping and killing, the Australian Pet Welfare Foundation says it has a better way to control the cat population. University of Queensland's Emeritus Professor Jacquie Rand joins the show to explain more. Also in this episode, it’s show time, a flu and covid vax reminder and Exercise Talisman Sabre coming in July and August.
