(cat wearing a video cam; 30% of roaming house cats kill prey--two animals a week on average)

Two consecutive paragraphs:

"The cats brought home just under a quarter of what they killed, ate 30% and left 49% to rot where they died.

"The carnage cuts across species. Lizards, snakes and frogs made up 41% of the animals killed, Loyd and fellow researcher Sonia Hernandez found. Mammals such as chipmunks and voles were 25%, insects and worms 20% and birds 12%.
