Viral video: Mice rain in Australia

It’s raining mice in Australia as the country is going through one of the worst rodent plagues in recent years.

A video posted on Twitter appears to show some of the mice ‘raining’ from the sky.

Lucy Thackray, an Australian Broadcasting Corporation journalist shared the video which shows both dead and live mice falling to the ground in the Australian state of New South Wales.

Thackray wrote on Twitter, “Even if grain’s in silos, mice can get to it. Like Tyler Jones discovered in Tullamore when cleaning out the auger and it started raining mice.”

Farmers in the state of New South Wales (NSW) have now pleaded for financial support from the local government to combat what they warned amounted to a ‘natural disaster.’
