It is impossible to prevent someone else's cat from defecating,digging, spraying plants and vegetables or killing native wildlife on their land. It is more important to protect our native animals than it is to breed another country's animal that are proven as a species to decimate our own.

As it is, feral cats throughout Australia are already out of control killing vulnerable wildlife and you're considering importing a bigger cat! Please do not allow this importation to occur.

A bit of commonsense will tell anyone that.

There is ample evidence of the destruction from 'normal' feral cats, and to bring in a 'super' version of this would seem very contradictive to environmental concerns from both a governmental and community view.

Local governments, with State sanction, have banned various suipposedly dangerous dog breeds. It's time for government to start taking some real responsibility for controlling a cat problem that has been ignored for far too long.

These cats will become a trendy fashion accessory, dumped in the wild when no longer required.
They will wreak havoc amongst a range of tree dwelling fauna previously protected by their size and once released will be almost impossible to eradicate.
Please do not allow these cats to enter our envoronment.

It is counterproductive to allow the importation of this hybrid feline, which represents possibly the greatest threat to native australian fauna since the introduction of the European Red Fox.

People drop unwanted cats in the park. Landcare Group members have trapped 35 stray cats - the Shire of Yarra Ranges rangers can verify this. We vehmently oppose the import of savannah cats. Doubtless some would similarly be dropped in various rural areas and thus, along with the numerous other feral animals, will further decimate our native fauna. I strongly urge you to prevent the import of this animal.
