More rats are confirmed to exist in Iceland than have been sighted ever in Alberta in the past 10 years, but Iceland remains uncolored. Provide a reputable source for the claims of habitation before reverting.

While occasional sightings are reported, a population density so incredibly low in a species such as rats is an absurd basis for habitation. Frankly, areas like the Sahara, Namib, and Kalahari are reason enough to totally make a new version of the map from scratch. But unlike someone does this, the more accurate reversion is better t...

Rats are not native to Alberta or Canada and thus habitation requires evidence greater than an article pointing out 1 rat colony in a landfill that was destroyed within the month.
