Introduction to the area
The Indian Mongoose naturally lives in India and 13 other place which it is sacred so is not allowed to be hunted or killed, but they were introduced to Hawaii and 14 other places that want to get rid of them. They were brought to Hawaii by W.B Espeut to control the rat population. then where brought to several other islands to do the same thing. They did not get rid of the rat problem because they are awake at different times of the day. At the beginning they started with 72 mongooses and some were said to be pregnant. They have been spread because some were pregnant and did not have any predators on the island so they spread fast.
why they have not gone away
Even though Indian Mongooses where brought to these areas to help save the islands sugarcane and other things from rats they did not totally help with that problem but instead created their own by overruning the place because their population grows fast and they had almost no predators going after them exept for humans which could only do so much in the efforts of stopping them.
stars are all the places that they have invaded.
