Pakistan Rat Behavior
In the Pakistan, the Pakistani rat lives throughout the lower 48 cities. While generally found at lower elevations, this species can occur wherever people live.
Pakistani rat tails are scaly and shorter than the length of the head and body combined. Their ears are small, scaly, and have no fur. Droppings are capsule-shaped. Pakistan rats usually nest in underground burrows typically found along building foundations, beneath rubbish or woodpiles, and in moist areas in and around gardens and fields. Nests can be lined with shredded paper, cloth, or other fibrous material. They usually enter buildings in search of food. When searching for food and water, Norway rats usually travel an area of about 100 to 150 feet in diameter; seldom do they travel any further than 300 feet from their burrows or nests. The average female Pakistan rat has 4 to 6 litters per year and can successfully wean 20 or more offspring annually. When Pakistan rats invade buildings, they usually remain in the basement or ground floor.
Pakistan rats are omnivorous and feed on a variety of food sources. They prefer meats, fruits, grains and nuts, and some fruits but will really eat anything. Dead animals also serve as a food source for these rats, and they are capable of catching small fish and rodents. They require water to drink, and they make their colony as close to a water source as possible. They have limited agility, but are excellent swimmers.
