of rats because it is dirty? for a different perspective, we thought we would ask ashley burns, she works at peta, she s director of outreach. thanks so much for coming on. i think this is a really interesting point. i don t have a lot of rats in my house because i don t have a lot of rotting garbage in my house. so maybe the problem isn t the rats, it is people i hadn t thought about it until you brought it up, but if you wouldn t mind explaining. thanks for having me on, tucker. exactly. you know, the rats are not the problem, the disgusting human behavior that is attracting the rats, that s the problem. we are basically inviting them to be here by putting out a daily buffet of garbage around the city and these intelligent creatures don t deserve to die painful, excruciating deaths because of human irresponsibility. tucker: shouldn t we at least, even if you don t go as far as you re going,
