Οι συνθήκες διαβιώσης τους στη μεγάλη πλειοψηφία δεν είναι αυτές που ορίζει ο νόμος και δεν αρμόζουν στις ανάγκες τους. Αδέσποτα υπάρχουν παντού και δεν περιορίζονται μόνο στις κατοικήσιμες περιοχές. Αδέσποτες γάτες και σκυλιά βλέπουμε να ζουν άγρια μέσα στα δάση μας, στις καλλιεργημένες περιοχές , μέσα στους προστατευόμενους οικότοπους του Εθνικού θαλάσσιου Πάρκου Ζακύνθου (Ε.Θ.Π.Ζ) και στις προστατευόμενες περιοχές Natura 2000. Οι γάτες και τα σκυλιά είναι σαρκοφάγα ζώα τα οποία κυνηγούν και πιάνουν τη λεία τους. Όταν ζουν μέσα στην άγρια φύση και στις αγροτικές περιοχές συμβάλλουν στην μείωση μέχρι...
