Make rats great again

You can't make this shit up.
Yeah it's safe I say I'll never move back to Maine.
Crazy animal rights leftists want to save rats from the city and relocate them to the countryside where they'll starve to death.

I'm not sure that the rural folks would want a horde of rats unleased upon them. As far as the rats starving, where do you think the food came from to begin with? The countryside! Rats are rodents, cousins to squirrels, rabbits and beaver, all of which humans have eaten in the past, present and future. Rats that lived in the countryside would be healthier than urban rats due to lower population densities, reduced disease, less pollution and cleaned food. Hell, they might even be good eating!
I read of an experiment conducted many years ago, that studied behavior in urban rats vs rural rats. I forget the name, but I'll call it the Hell's Kitchen Experiment. Researchers established two colonies of rats; one was a natural environment (low population, clean food and water, no pollution, etc.) and the other was a blighted urban environment...Hell's Kitchen, and all that that entails. Then they connected the two colonies and allowed them to move back-and-forth at will. At first the rats stayed in their own colonies, then they began to visit back-and-forth, but in the end most of the rats choose one environment over the other...Hell's Kitchen!

 

I remember reading there are as many rats in NewYuck City as there are people. The leftist should be pushing eat rats other than bugs

 

Rats are probably more nutritious (if prepared well) than communion wafers.

Of course rats could become a serviceable form of entertainment....using the rats tail scale....

 

I'm sure if thousands of rats are dumped in one place in Maine in the middle of winter I can say with great certainty most of them will starve and freeze to death.

 

True, if they weren't able to find dens and food, they would die. Also, that many rats released into a small area would over tax the available resources and everything would die. Animal rights activists, and others of their ilk, don't usually think things through.

 

Yes animal rights activists actions usually tuen out to be quite harmful to animals.
Some dumbass released all the minks from a uk mink farm at night a few years ago. It was winter, these were animals were raised by humans had no clue what to do in the wild and it appeared all of them died of exposure by morning.
It's like they don't even care about the animals and just want to cause injury, damage to people and industries they don't agree with.

 

Almost ALL domesticated animals, with the possible exception of beef cattle, horses and cats, cannot survive in the wild.

 

Remember, too, that rats in the city really have no natural predators. Out in the country, they may not fair so well.

 

Dogs, goats, pigs, camels, and poultry, are all domesticated animals with potential to become feral.

 

Dogs don't do so well. Poultry are just food for the local predators. Goats might do well, if there are no large predators. However, pigs will not only live but thrive...and eat everything else out of house and home, and then eat them! Camels can do well, but we don't have them in America any longer.
I'm reminded of the guy that liberated a bunch of lobsters from a Red Lobster restaurant and released them...in a river...where they died!

 

Put Lobsters, in a river?
Definitely a democrackhead voter.
Boiling water would have been more humane.

 

@Wildbilly we don't have non-domesticated camels in N. America any more. I have seen ranchers in Texas that raise them, though!

 

The US Army experimented with camels in the Southwestern US before the Civil War (Jefferson Davis was Sec. of War), when the Civil War began the camels were released when the US Army withdrew from the frontier. There were tales of camels wandering the West for years afterward, but eventually they died out. Didn't you ever watch a TV show called, "F Troop"?

 

Feral camels are a feature of the Central and Western Australian States and territories....they do just fine in that environment.

 

Too bad we couldn't get Haitians to eat rats.

 

Rats - the New York treat
