Rats are accustomed to feed waste from restaurants during the quarantine scurry through the deserted streets in search of food, according to Japanese newspaper Asahi.
In particular, large flocks of rodents were seen in Tokyo’s entertainment district of Kabukicho, where there are many bars and restaurants.
NHK TV showed the video, like rats running through the night streets of major Japanese cities Kitakyushu and tear put on the street with garbage bags in search of food.
according to the Japanese Association for combating rats, the mass appearance of rodents on the streets is not surprising. There are fewer people and they grew bolder, and the reduction of sources of food forces the animals to be bolder. And it’s a problem not only in Japan but around the world.
this has not been proven that rats can carry the coronavirus.
In Japan, currently declared a state of emergency. And although the authorities have not imposed strict restrictions on output, they are asking people to stay home. As a result, the number of people on the streets decreased by 60-80 percent.
