The original source of cats in Australia is unknown, they may have been brought to Australia as pets or as stowaways on ships.
By the 1850’s there were several populations of feral cats existing in the wild.
Wild cats are effective predators and are credited with the extinction and decline of many Australian animals through both direct predation and competition for food sources.
