One possible explanation could be a higher rate of survival for rats with white fur in their natural environment. For example, if the rats with white fur are better camouflaged and can more easily avoid predators, they may have a higher chance of surviving and reproducing. Another explanation could be that rats with white fur have a genetic advantage, such as a stronger immune system or better adaptability to changes in their environment, allowing them to reproduce more successfully. Additionally, it is possible that there has been a change in the available food sources, favoring rats with white fur over those with black fur, leading to their higher population growth.
