That was the largest orgy of rat death I've ever seen.

Good video that has been posted before.  There is another one that shows them moving hay bales that was also great but I can't find the video now.

Interesting. The UK outlawed foxhunting with dogs, but ratting is still legal.

I don't have a problem with it, just amazed at the double standard.

Rats don't have cute fluffy tails, and if foxes looked like giant isopods no one would care about them either.

I watched for a few minutes and thought to myself, "it's probably about over"

Nope!  20 more minutes!!!

Is this just a field with a giant colony of rats? Looks like the dogs are loving it.

Cool have how they have different breeds working for different ratting jobs. The small terriers for hitting (James is badass at detecting) on the targets and first line of defense. Larger runner dogs to chase down the rats that make it through the terriers.

Nimh will never be the same.

My schnauzer mix loves chasing mice and rats.

I didn't watch the video.

Did they bait the rats? And if so, what did they use?

You Tube has tons of ratting videos. I'm also curious if the dogs need any sort of shots after munching on hundreds of rats?

Edit, Dayum, at the 4min mark, one uplifted clump of mud revealed half a dozen rats.

One of the related videos had a dude ratting with a couple of dogs and a....mink.

We used to go on rat safaris in our backyard fruit orchard.

Shoot the rats out of the trees with pellet rifles and our rat terrier (with a chihuahua assist) would finish off the survivors.
She LOVED killing rats.

I used to not care about rats being out there but after several $1,000+ bills for vehicle damaged caused by the little fuckers, I kill every one I find.

Looks like a farm poultry/ pig operation.  
The tunnels look like a manure field that might have cast off feed imbedded into it.

It might have been a covered animal pen that was moved to clean area in a normal rotation as manure builds up. You just move the tent like building.

Indeed.  That looks like years and years of manure build up.
