This reminds me of the anti-wind-energy arguments about the turbines killing many birds...

how in the world are cats so good at killing something that can literally fly

What's up with comms towers? High-voltage AM antennas are not that abundant anymore. Are birds getting cooked close to high-power transmitters? Shot to avoid interference with crucial military infrastructure? Is 5G real?

Well the image claims to be based on data from 2015, so no 5G was not real at that time.

That was a joke, and so was the previous sentence (a reference to the birdsarentreal conspiracy. Seriously, how do comms towers harm birds?

Edit: collisions with tall AM towers' guy wires

Is this even a meme? It's a screenshot of yet another Windows/windows joke.

3.5 billion birds are killed in North America per year? I didn't know anywhere near that number even existed.

But then again...

Wikipedia says there are about 7.5 million square miles in the US and Canada, so that's over 400 birds killed per square mile, per year, on average.

That's amazing, no?

There are more than 8 billion chickens slaughtered every year in the US alone, to give some perspective.
