>During the Great Leap Forward (1958–1962), Chinese leader Mao Zedong launched radical agricultural policies including the Four Pests Campaign.
>The campaign ordered the mass killing of sparrows, rats, flies, and mosquitoes, and eliminating sparrows disrupted ecosystems and contributed to massive locust outbreaks that worsened crop failures.
>The resulting famine—known as the Great Chinese Famine—killed an estimated 15–45 million people, making it one of the deadliest human-made disasters in history.
