Climate change could allow rats to have more babies. Enter rodent birth control
Warming temperatures mean more rats, and the possible spread of more disease between the rodents and people. That has some scientists and municipal governments asking: is birth control part of the solution to curbing the rodent population boom?

DYK that TKSST has lots of Superb Owl content? Like this...

🦉🍷 Barn #owls in #Napa Valley are helping winegrowers by acting as natural pest control, capable of eating thousands of #rodents a year.

By examining the bones and fur left inside regurgitated owl pellets, scientists can keep a close eye on the #health of these raptor populations and their #environment.

À la piscine...
J'avais prévu mes abreu-voirs/drinkstation comme des décors pour le nourrissage l'hiver et des points d'eau pour aider les animaux pendant l'été. Ce petit a décidé qu'on pouvait s'y baigner même en février.

(En réalité, il passe son temps à récupérer les restes des derniers nourrissages de la saison - je suis dans la période où on diminue avant d'arrêter. Il récupère les graines dans l'eau, farfouille dans la vase du fond, prends les graines et les vers sur les plate-formes et va les manger dans son petit terrier)

Rat brun, Indre, Fr, 02/26

Fred the groundhog predicts early spring in Quebec, aligning with fellow Canadian rodents
Fred junior crawled out of his wooden log cabin and did not see his shadow early Monday morning, which, according to tradition, predicts an early spring. This prediction is in line with a slew of Fred's colleagues, including Wiarton Willie and Shubenacadie Sam .
