Rattus norvegicus, Brown Rat View in CoL
The brown rat is distributed from Korean peninsula to Jeju. The Korean population is regarded as R. n. caraco and was considered as a native mammal in Korea ( Won and Smith, 1999). However, brown rat is listed on wien species ( NIER, 2011). This species inhabits all human habitations, from urban area to temples in mountains. The population density on Jeju is relatively low .
