More than 500 rats were found in the Netherlands, causing many people to be curious about the cause of the rodent's death.

According to the Mirror, a strange phenomenon occurred in the city of Hommerts, the Netherlands is making headaches experts find ways to explain . Hundreds of mice jumped from a water bridge in the city and lay dead and dead underneath, with no known cause.

Hundreds of rats jump to the water and die.

On June 23, 140 bodies were found. A day later, this number increased by 351, Sneeker Nieuwsblad said.

No one knows the cause of the incident or who is responsible for clearing the body of the mouse.

Some hypotheses are given. Some argue that rats are forced to move in large numbers when farmers flood the fields to harvest.

"If their space is limited, the rats are forced to find new places. When they are fired, I can imagine them running through the water bridge and falling , " one said.

Meanwhile, ecological adviser John Melis shared on Omrop Fryslan: "I think very simple about this problem. The rats want to run through the bridge but when they reach the bridge for some reason they can't stop so each other falls to the sidewalk below ".
