For nearly seven decades, Alberta has been winning the war on rats

May 4, 2024
Alberta’s rat patrol has eyes everywhere. That’s why a young woman’s seemingly innocuous social-media post about her pet rat was turned over to provincial officials who then had to give her some sad news: the domesticated vermin had to go.The owner wasn’t in trouble, but she had a decision to make: Surrender the rat to be euthanized or find it a home outside of Alberta. So, in mid-March, the beady-eyed rodent was sent east to settle into a family member’s home in Saskatchewan.Rejoice, Alberta. The province remains rat free – well, sort of.
