PARIS – There are more rats than the citizens of Paris. To be precise, 6 million rats compared to 2 million Parisians—the population of Paris.
In fact, the Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo has “gave up”. He formed a committee to consider “cohabitation” between the two million population of six million rats. That is, residents of the city of Paris are asked to surrender and accept living with the rats in the city.
Just like the movie Ratatouille, which tells the story of a mouse named Remy who has the ambition to have his own restaurant. He eventually teamed up with chef Alfredo Linguini.
The Paris city government’s “cohabitation” plan shows that their program has indeed failed. The anti-rat strategy, which has been underway since 2017, is worth 1.7 million euros (Rp 27 billion) and includes the installation of airtight bins throughout Paris and the widespread use of rat poison.
Geoffroy Boulard, head of the French capital’s 17th arrondissement is adamant that Paris deserves a better programme. He also urged the city government to draw up a plan to combat rat breeding in public spaces.
10 Cities with the Most Mice in the World
In fact, Paris is indeed one of the top 10 cities with the most rats in the world. The rats were almost everywhere. Including very popular with tourists. Starting from the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, to the Palais Royal. There are rat colonies at train stations, on the banks of the Seine, in streets and buildings.
Apparently, Paris is not the city with the most rats in the world. However, it still ranks fourth, behind Deshnoke, India, London and New-York.
In the French capital, there are more rats than there are residents. Experts consider that around 6 million rats live under Paris, which is 1.75 rats per inhabitant, because there are 2.175 million Parisians in Paris. Interestingly, there are 2 cities in France that are in the top 10. Besides Paris number 4 as the city with the most rats, Marseille is number 10.
So, here are the 10 cities with the most rats in the world:
1. Deshnoke, India
2. London, England
3. New York, America
4. Paris, France
5. Singapore
6. Hamelin, Germany
7. Guangzhou, China
8. Johannesburg, South Africa
