The Great Hanoi Rat Hunt!




The Wholesome Show show

Summary: At the beginning of the 20th Century the French colonisers in Hanoi had a problem with rats. Sure, rats had always been out there in the streets and the Vietnamese neighbourhoods... But something new was happening... The rats were poking their furry noses up in the toilets of the rich and powerful. Ugh! Will explores how they tried to solve the problem! The Wholesome Show is Dr Will Grant and Dr Rod Lamberts, joined today by Kim Ballestrin! Normally brought to you by The Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science, today we're also brought to you by #LASTConf!
