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

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?

Misconception. Birdkiller Georg has 3 billion dead birds a year and is also known as New York City
