Holy crumbs! I can't imagine how frightened I'd be if this monster made it into my home! Even my 2 cats would probably have way too much sense to even try and take it on.

The cat I had as a child would make very short work of that guy.

Well, the rodent is really big, but all those electrical cords plugged into that power strip look like a fire watiting to happen to me.

Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don’t think they exist.

Bunch of European-ized panty-wastes!
Growing up on the farm my brothers cleaned up an old grainery, they went in with shovels in the morning to dig up it’s dirt floor...
By evening we had a pile of dead rats about 3ft tall....
Not a Sh!t was given for all those dead ass rats.
We never had a rat problem in that grainery again... I think they managed to get them all!

Range of Virginia Opossum. As far as I know, there are no opossums in Sweden.

Opossums have white fur on their faces, generally. And there arent any opossums living in Sweden FWICS. The brown rat, Rattus norvegicus, can reach 18 inches in length though.

Too bad they didn’t have that cat that was terrorizing some other family!

PS. There is also one venomous snake species in Sweden, the common European adder (Vipera berus). Those can get into houses very easily through holes made by a rat that size.

Maybe they should have filmed Noah in this family's house or at least Sweden. Apparently there are all kinds of noxious fauna there.

They sure that isnt an opossum? It could be a nutria/coypu..Without seeing the front feet, it's hard to tell.
