you see the weak dogs (of which there are many) would be killed off pretty soon if all cats and dogs were left to fend for themselves. then with no weak dogs left, not dismissive of cannibalism the stronger dogs would turn on the not so strong dogs (btw, cats out run dogs and they can climb trees....forget about dogs whipping out the cat population) and of co ...[text shortened]... cats living nearby, they got along just fine.
just admit it, cats are the superior species.
Originally posted by Very RustySome dog breeds are used for the purpose of killing rats. Most if not all species of snakes and birds of prey will prey on rats. Animals do not survive by their intelligence.
Find another source for your info...Cats kill rats...So rats aren't so smart after all! I haven't seen it personally but I think you can add squirrels to that list.
VR and the way I see it. 😛

Originally posted by Scotty70A Walker American Foxhound could catch a cheetah byway of his ability to sustain the chase for many hours. A cheetah may as well save his energy for fighting the dog. There is a reason why sprinters do not compete in distance races. Dogs are the marathon champions of the land animals.

Originally posted by gambit3No, humans are the marathon champions of the land animals.

Modern humans and their immediate ancestors such as Homo erectus sport several adaptations that make humans, instead of some ferocious, furry, or fleet creature, the animal world’s best distance runners.
