A single district in Northern Germany has had 660 cats shot within a year. In the dstrict’s state 2580 cats were shot in total. Note that the “landesweit” doesn’t refer to countrywide but rather to statewide (as German states are called “federal countries”).

That’s where the 160,000 deaths number came from. The largest German nature conservation NGO is also quoted as saying cats are a danger to birds.
