I don't think anyone likes wild rats! Evil ugly thing that spread disease, yuk is right! At least squirrels may destroy the garden, but we don't catch things from them, reluctant as I am to say anything good about them...  |

That's a worrying article. It seems to suggest that the situation is getting rather out of control with nobody co-ordinating a response. |

All it takes is a few irrresponsible people to release animals or plants! Florida's climate is so hospitable to things: they have giant toads, all kinds of plants that are killing off the native vegetation... no rats here yet, but they have found Chinese oysters in the Chesapeake Bay, threatening the very lucrative oyster crop, and Asian walking catfish as well! And of course the mussels that have infested all the Great Lakes...alien invaders!! |
