Karni Mata is the Kuldevi of the Bikaner royal family. It is said that the princely states of Bikaner and Jodhpur were established with her blessings. Rats living in the Karni Mata Mandir are considered to be the children of Karni Mata. According to the legend of Karni Mata.
Once, Karni Mata's step-son (her sister Gulab and her husband's son) drowned while trying to drink water in Kapil Sarovar located in Kolayat. When Karni Mata came to know about this, she prayed to Yamdev, the god of death, to revive her son.
At first, Yamraj refused, but later he was forced to revive him in the form of a mouse. There are more than 20,000 rats present in this Mandir. The rats living here are called Kaba. The prasad offered to the Karni Mata is first eaten by rats and then it is distributed.
The number of rats can be measured from the fact that to reach the main Mandir, You have to walk by dragging your feet. If a mouse comes under your foot and gets injured. So it is considered inauspicious.
There are very few white rats in the Mandir. If a devotee gets the Darshan of the white mouse, then it is believed that all the wishes of the devotee will be fulfilled very soon.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
