The black rat has become an ecological pest since it was introduced to the Northern Territory. It eats the food source of many native animals, feeding on fruits, seeds, leaves, bark, insects, slugs and snails, whilst also posing a threat to Australia's native animals as its prey on lizards, small birds and fledglings, and eggs.
