Dry and smoke them, then pack them in terriyaki sauce. Sell them over bars in the U.S. as oriental mice jerky. Good with a cold bottle of Tsiang Tao. Or has that been done before?

That still leaves about 5 inches of elbow room per mouse.

Also a movie, a pretty good one, I think.

They must have come out of their hidey holes to watch Live Earth. Clearly, this is the audience of 2 billion that Al Gorebbels was talking about!

I just watched the clip from #10, and am *this* close to being ill!
I saw the movie Ratatouille last week with the little ones, and had to get up and go outside for a breath of fresh air, I found it so repulsive. Especially when hundreds of Ratatouille’s rat friends took over the kitchen.

The only person who could ever think a rodent was ‘cute’ was Walt Disney.
Phoenix is inundated with roof rats this time of year. It is disgusting.

The problem will disappear immediately if someone starts the rumor that Kung Pao Mouse is an aphrodisiac.

I’d say import all our “unwanted” cats, but they’d get eaten by humans. Let’s send them a truckload of snakes, monitor lizards, iguanas, roadrunners, hawks. Well, anything that isn’t truly endangered.

We get field mice in the winter. The cats take care of the problem, quite efficiently :)

Jebus, Mary and Joseph! I vaguely remember seeing some of the video years ago, but man, that was something. The damage they did to the building and eating the animals alive was something!
At least the Australian government helped these people out. I can’t imagine Bejing is going to lift a finger.

Now, an estimated 2 billion mice are ravaging crops in 22 counties around the lake, and authorities were rushing to construct walls and ditches to keep the rodents out. Residents have killed more than 2.3 million field mice or 90 tons of the rodents, Xinhua said.
In other news, profit margins of American food importers soar due to an unexpected glut of Chinese meat.

I wouldn't have minded if it were my property, and the government wanted to use tactical nukes to combat that, lol!
