Every subspecies of cow, so the entire world must adopt the American bison as its new domestic grazer.

Bison steaks for all!

Remove Panda or any other animal that contributes nothing to its environment and is only not extinct already cause humans find them cute.

>>2365244
you smell like ass

>>2365291
Stop believing normie memes you bandwagoning cretin
Panda is thriving and breeding heaps because recently Chinese have protected its natural habitat
Panda is no longer endangered, it is now listed as vunerable because of extremely successful conservation efforts

>>2364779
I would say parasitic worms because of how unpleasant they are but there is much more than just one species of them and eradicating any one wouldn't have much impact on anything.

So instead, I'll agree with you, OP and say cats because they have no positive impact on the environment and a strong negative one.

I would say fleas or ticks. Pretty sure they contribute nothing to anything besides making people and animals suffer.

No you dumb fuck, it catches the rat every time, wont play with it like a retard, and doesn't need to be fed/have a box to shit in

>tarantulas
>poisoning you

>dogs are horrible pest removers

No they're not, they do a much faster and better job of killing rats than cats do and won't fuck around like cats. Look on Youtube and there are tons of videos of dogs not even bred for the purpose of ratting doing an excellent job of clearing out a nest of them in a way your cat could never do.
The only true way a cat helps diminish mice and rats is because its terrible scent repels them, unless they're infected - bringing the rat/mouse to the cat. They're lazy fucking hunters.

Cats were accepted because they're cute/cool and because if you didn't have anything else a cat was an okay ratter. They certainly are not the only thing that kills rats and we don't even need animal exterminators anymore.

Have you never seen a working terrier? It's a whole class of dogs bred specifically for eradicating vermin quickly and efficiently. There is nothing better for ratting, especially in areas where poison cannot be used.

>>2365508
>white people took thousands of years to breed an animal that just does what a cat does anyway
really makes me ponder

humans had dogs for thousands of years and still had to domesticate cats AND THEN breed a specific dog breed just to hunt mice. that should tell you something about the eficiency of dogs as rats killers, no?

>>2364779
I always found it weird how in denial that drawfag was about /k/ and /pol/ having the same population.

>>2365511
Takes a long time to make a masterpiece, and while cats were relevant 2000 years ago they aren't anymore! Now they are *just* a drain. Like yourself.

Yeah, it tells me people were so unsatisfied with cats they had to breed something else to actually get the job done.

Not really. A lot of people who frequent /k/ don't go to /pol/.

It's just a lot of redditors who use /pol/ like to go to other boards to spread their filth. If you're still in denial, just look at /k/'s reactions to /pol/fags at any given moment, they hate them, and the /pol/fags just repeat cuck ad nauseum.

>>2365611
It's a nigger of some sort, don't try to argue with it. It will always go back to what white people did or thought.

Only skimmed but what wild animal(s) do you think would truly benefit not only us but the world as a whole if they were wiped out, or never existed? I'm not counting pathogens.

My vote would be ticks or mosquitoes, though I'm not sure how bad mosquitoes effect animals when it comes to spread disease. For ticks spreading diseases aside from lyme disease I am also unsure, but I know ticks and lungworms are devastating our moose population by killing off more than half of moose calves.

On that note, do you think the multiple outbreaks of the black plague would have been as bad as they were without rats? It was carried by fleas that also fed on plenty of other animals, which also killed them(though there doesn't seem to be much info on how much it effected livestock populations and most what I am finding is that cats and dogs were killed because they also carried fleas).
I assume the pneumonic plague was a new strain and that was airborne so that may not count, unless it was an 'evolved' strain or some shit. I don't know, I'm not a scientist or doctor.

Even without the cat killing, I don't think it'd stop the spreading much at all. I'm also suspicious about just how many cats were killed due to superstition. I'm sure it happened but there's so much misinformation, lack of real sources/records that it seems overblown.

>>2365573
asians are weird. they eat dogs as well. not an argument.

>>2365611
>fucking ferrets kill rodents better than cats
except that's not true

>>2365511
Cat finds a rat, toys with it for a while, maybe brings it out to the owner.
Dog catches the rat, kills it, brings it to owner, gets praise and goes to catch another.

>>2365742

cats are the lowest form of shit, deal with it

These two are correct. Ratters at work are impressive.

>>2365546
As a /k/ommando and /pol/ack I find it best to keep /pol/ in pol. There's a time and a place for it.

>>2365577
You're either a genius or a complete moron. Maybe both.

I wonder if there'd be a discernible drop?

Apparently there's between 10K to 25K Blue whales on earth right now.

For ease of calculation, they are up to 200 tonnes, so lets just go with there being 15K blue whales at 200 tonnes. [this fudges for juveniles etc]

That works out to 200X15000 = 3 Million tonnes, I know fuck all about boats but a displacement of 3M tonnes seems like a lot.

On the oceanic scale though that's not a great deal, I mean ok that works out to around 400 nuclear submarines?

I don't think there'd be an appreciable dip in the oceans from that.

/sci/ got any input?

>>2365868
Apparently there's 332,519,000 cubic miles of water in the worlds oceans.

A million tonnes of water is apparently about the size of a cube 100M by 100M by 100M. (1609 M to the mile).

Now my metric isn't great but I think there's a lot more metres in a mile than that. In fact that isn't even much of a dent in a cubic mile even multiplied by three.

I know the worlds oceans aren't all quite the same level and displacement+wind+gravity does some weird things, but anyway, removing all whales seems to my pretty poor scholarship to do fuck all.

Perhaps, we can fill the void with all the cats we are going to be genociding based on this thread?

I don't even dislike cats, but I really don't like catfags, especially outdoor catfags.

So just to spite the catfag ITT, put me down as another vote for cats.

There's even historical precedent for this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Cat_Massacre
>The Great Cat Massacre is the title of a scholarly work on the cultural history of France by American historian Robert Darnton. The book, a series of essays, takes its name from its most famous chapter which describes and interprets an unusual source detailing the murder or "massacre" of cats during the late 1730s by apprentice printers living and working on Rue Saint-Séverin in Paris.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat-burning
>Cat burning was a form of zoosadistic entertainment in France prior to the 1800s. In this form of entertainment, people would gather dozens of cats in a net and hoist them high into the air from a special bundle onto a bonfire. In the medieval and early modern periods, cats, which were associated with vanity and witchcraft, were sometimes burned as symbols of the Devil.


http://www.kattenstoet.be/en/page/497-510/cat-torturing-in-the-middle-ages.html
>In medieval times cats were tortured and killed during the 'Cat fair' in many West European places. When the Prince of Orange and the Duke of Anjou visited Bruges in July 1582 they were 'very fittingly welcomed with a beautiful device' according to an old text.' This 'beautiful device' consisted of a ship with a high mast that was placed in the centre of the Market Square. Fireworks were placed on the ship at different places and when they were lit a mix of crackling powder and cats meowing resounded. When the ship finally was set alight, the animals perished in the flames.

How awful. I am not a great fan of cats, but that is just shameful. Killing animals for entertainment is just niggery. Even if they are pests, it is not morally acceptable to make the death of a weaker creature a spectacle for amusement.

Which is sort of what this thread seems to be about, if I may say so.

"What should we kill- a question for entertainment. Lets call it though provoking to make adolescent sadism sound like intellectual discussion."

Seriously.

Almost certainly way overblown.

Yeah, I thought so. Same with how effective cats are/supposedly deterimental to keep it from spreading. On ships yeah maybe if they're isolated for weeks and months but rats breed and grow up faster than cats can catch and kill them.
