"Rescuers Rally to Save Rats Overrunning Portland's Harbor View Park"
Volunteers in Portland are working to rescue what they believe are domesticated rats living in Harbor View Memorial Park, aiming to find foster homes for them. The group insists that the large rat population is not from a recently cleared homeless encampment, but rather domesticated. Despite the city's extermination efforts, the volunteers have rescued rats and brought them to vets who confirmed their domestic nature. The volunteers are concerned about the rats' well-being in the cold and are urging the city to stop using poison to exterminate them.
