Millions of mice have invaded New South Wales. It's not typical for them to leave the food sources and head to the cities, but this time everything has changed. The rodents destroyed some of the farmland and moved on.

Scientists worry that the hordes of mice will be replaced by snakes, which do not spoil the harvest, but pose a much greater danger to people. In Australia, there are about 100 species of venomous snakes, the bite of which can be fatal.

At the same time, environmentalists are concerned that the poison that kills the mice persists in their corpses and poses a deadly danger to rodent-eating predators.

A huge army of pests is now heading for Sydney. People tell creepy stories about mice biting them while they sleep in bed. If this attack is not stopped, then in August the rodents will be able to fill the capital of Australia.

Mice devour everything around them, but their omnivorous nature played an important role during the Second World War. They say that it was the rodents that helped defeat the Red Army of the Germans in the battles for Stalingrad.
