The Urban Ecology of Rats and Mice | Dr. Danielle Lee

Across time, across the sea, across the land, across cultures, human societies have contended with rodent pests. In both agricultural and urban settings, diverse species of rats and mice have managed to make a living with us and off of us, with us. This presentation will review the history of our interactions with these rodents, our most pernicious, non-pet and non-food familiars and discuss how they help us understand ourselves better.
