If a tree needs to be taken down in order to make a home, so be it. Someone mentioned birds of prey snatching up domestic cats that are allowed to roam. Sorry, but pet cats should stay in the home or be supervised by it's owner like a dog. No, I would not bother with birds of prey unless they became dangerous to humans. I don't want bears roaming the Villages, just because they were here first. I do not care who or what was here first. If I purchase a home, I don't want wildlife endangering my family or friends, period. And I have no intention of moving some place else "if I don't like it." I love wildlife and I love trees and landscapes, but if I want to build a home on my property anywhere, it doesn't matter what was there first.
The gator goes, not granny.

How do think they can be removed? How do you keep them from coming back?
