Early rat introductions in Europe and America
The black rat reached Europe at the start of the sixteenth century and moved westward in America, while the brown rat did not reach England until about 1728. The date of introduction to America remains doubtful, with the black or Alexandrine rat likely arriving first before the larger rodents displaced it.
