The flowering of bamboo

The Melocanna Baccifera flowers every 50 years in Indias Mizoram state. However, its blooming brings tens of millions of hungry rats. When there are no more bamboo fruit to eat, the rats begin demolishing crops like rice. The last outbreak began in 2006 and lasted through 2008.
