Abstract
There are several wildlife species that occur worldwide that live in close association with humans, including several rat species, house mice, pigeons, crows, and starlings, to name a few. Some of them such as rats, mice, and starlings are considered pests around farms, ranches, and homes. Others, such a pigeons, are concerns for human health. These are commonly are referred to as “commensal vertebrate pests” because of their intimate relationships with and dependence on humans.
