numbers up to 20,000/m2 but typically 5–10,000/m2 under light infestations.
YBG occurs in areas with adequate summer rainfall, usually where the annual rainfall
exceeds 500 mm per annum, although it can tolerate dry conditions once
and
rats are increasingly subject to co-ordinated management
by landowners through Council programmes and by other
agencies and organisations. Rabbits, hares and hedgehogs
are also common in the agricultural landscape and while
they can thrive in drier conditions, such as well-drained
