New York's rat war #newyork #nyc #rats #newyorkrats

New York has a new mayor. But will he have an impact on the city’s rats? In this 2023 episode, Dateline travelled to the Big Apple to meet the people trying to tackle the rat problem. The city has continued to grapple with the issue since: in September this year, ‘rat czar’ Kathleen Corradi resigned. During the mayoral race, Republic candidate Curtis Sliwa even suggested unleashing colonies of feral cats to tackle the rats.
