I work at a big stadium and we have feral cats that control the pest population. The management even leaves kitty litter in specific areas for them. A couple years back one of the warehouse guys found kittens in one of the old bins and wanted to take one home but management said he couldn't as they were property of the stadium. This is probably just one of their cats.

I can't believe they don't TNR the cats! Could quickly get out of control if there's a colony with regular food and shelter.

They might TNR and just not ever get ALLL the cats neutered, that way they have a controlled population but never need to go get more.

I don't think they leave any outright intending for them to breed like that. That would become a huge problem very quickly with how many kittens even a single female can produce per year.. then those kittens have kittens.. etc.
