| 6. Well, it seems clear we would need at least Apache helicopters then. |
|
Perhaps a bit of napalm for the smarter ones.

| 15. I been getting intrested in the Tasmanian wolf for a while and I wanted |
|
to use a pic but the one website I knew of the pics were way too large. So I typed in Thylacine Pics into Yahoo and they had a mess of them all organized from various sites for me to sort through and I found this one.

I correct myself ( Tasmanian Tiger ), didn't know there was a difference between the Wolf and the Tiger.

| 17. I heard them called both things but the most common is the tiger name |
|
They picked up the wolf name years ago as a way to villify them when the campaign to wipe them out was in full swing.

| 9. Depends on the number and range... |
|
...and how much you want to spend.
Basically anything good at hunting varmits generally will handle feral cats, which, by the way, are an invasive species and are a menace to native wildlife.
For long range with multiple targets, consider the Bushmaster varmit model. I forgot its name, but it is an M-16 clone with a long target barrel and a rear rest built into the grip. As with all M-16 clones, it is chamberedfor 0.223 Rem. For long range with single target, any bolt action varmit rifle will do. The new Ruger 0.204 is supposed to give excellent performance, though it is not as widely available as 0.223.
For <200 yards, consider the Ruger bolt or lever action in 17 HRM. The 17 is much more accurate over distance that 0.22lr models and the Ruger rotary magazine holds ten rounds while still being flush with the stock.
For backyard distances and for maximum economy, the 0.22lr is still the favorite. Just about any decent model will do.
