Look closely and you will see a Manakuke, or Indian Mongoose, running through this miniature golf course. While it seems natural for a mongoose to call a golf course home, the species isn’t native; it was brought to the Islands in the 1880s to control rodent populations in sugar cane fields. Since mongoose don’t really have any naturally found predators in the Islands, nor were they very successful in controlling the rat populations (rats being noctural while mongoose are not, whoops), their population is rampant and not very welcome throughout the Islands.
