Rodents of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

I’d say closer to guinea pig than street rat.

A bit more crunchy than the Spotted Owl.

I can’t let my Rat Terrier see this. She’ll start working out and I’m just too old to keep up.

Let your breading set a bit longer and increase the oil temp to 335 deg, if that doesn’t work just deep fry half as long and finish under a broiler after it rests 5 minutes out of the fryer.

Down right Crunchy then... tried both methods on some California Condor and some Endangered California Kangaroo Rats and it works every time.

"82 centimeters sounds like a lot, until you realize it’s the same size as my penis."

Hey brother, the article said the rat is 82 centimeters long, not 82 millimeters. Lol!

The capybara is the largest rodent on earth at over 4ft in length and weighing around 150lbs. There are other rodents larger than this rat. But that IS a big rat, although it doesn’t really look like any rat I’ve seen. It’s very cute.

Many years ago while working nights (third shift) as a computer operator, I saw an absolutely HUGE rat while on my way to work. It was in Grant Park in Chicago and it was at least s large as a medium size dog.

I could tell it was a rat by it’s hunched back while it was walking.

Somwhow demon rats and Chicago seem to go hand in hand.

Looks like the BBC slithered down that slope to discover a Nutria which is a rat and larger than what they found.
