What bothers people most is that mice must occupy space, but people have never seen mice since ancient times. In ancient times, there was a saying that "mouse excrement ruined a pot of porridge", especially in modern times. The reason why mice don't like people is related to people's living habits. Mice like to live near farmland and houses, and mice especially like to eat crops, such as sweet potatoes, corn, wheat, rice, peanuts and other food crops. Rats have always been the main pests in agriculture, but there is a rodent in the mouse family, just like rats, which used to be the main pests in agriculture, but now it has become a very precious special breed, and the price is not cheap. This rodent is a particularly popular "bamboo rat" in recent years.

The reason why bamboo rats are popular is actually related to the network celebrity brothers who put forward bamboo rats in the past two years. They not only set fire to the bamboo rats, but also let everyone know about hundreds of strange eating bamboo rats. The experience of bamboo rats becoming hot is tortuous, and the number of people who have eliminated these four pests is on the rise, and rats are the first of these four pests, so no matter what kind of rats, they are regarded as pests, and farmers will fight them as soon as they see them. This kind of bamboo rat is actually very harmful. After all, it not only eats bamboo and platycodon grandiflorum, but also contains crop stalks in its diet, which is harmful to crops, so it was regarded as the main agricultural pest by farmers at that time.

People found that bamboo rats were very rare, so they changed from pests to protected animals. In fact, there are many bamboo rats in China. Among them, the white bamboo rat, the big bamboo rat, the Chinese bamboo rat and the small bamboo rat are very precious wild species today and are "three big animals that must be protected". Because bamboo rats are protected, people began to study bamboo rats, and found that bamboo rats have better meat quality, rich nutritional value and thick fur.

Moreover, the beard of bamboo rat is a high-end raw material for making brush. It can be said that the bamboo rat is a kind of treasure. Bamboo rat is very popular in domestic and foreign markets because it combines fur, meat, medicinal materials and decorations. Every year, 500,000 bamboo rats are transported to Southeast Asian countries, and at least 300 tons of bamboo rats are sold in the United States at a price of about RMB 100 each. They are high-end products that earn foreign exchange through export. Over the years, bamboo rats have been exported to China, especially to Fujian and Guangdong. There are also large-scale planting in Guangxi and Guizhou, especially many farmers have been breeding bamboo rats. Of course, breeding is risky. Although the bamboo rat is a treasure, it is impossible to breed anywhere. If you want to breed, you need to be careful.
