Voyage of discovery? A comment on Koch et al. "A voyage to Terra Australis: human-mediated dispersal of cats"
Abstract
The origins of feral cats in Australia may be understood with the help of molecular studies, but it is important that
hypotheses be tested with appropriate sampling and methodology. We point out several shortcomings in the
analysis by Koch et al. (BMC Evol Biol 15:262, 2015; A voyage to Terra Australis: human-mediated dispersal of cats. Dryad Digital Repository, 2015), present a reanalysis of part of the study and discuss the challenges of
elucidating the early history of feral cats.
