    Giant Rat Discovered

    Don't show the snakes, they will all want this for Christmas!


    Article: Giant Cat-Sized Rats Discovered in Papuan 'lost world'

    From the article:
    When the large furry creature first scuttled into their jungle camp looking for its supper, the scientists assumed it was a cat.

    But after several further visits, when it tamely allowed itself to be picked up, they realised they were actually holding a giant rat.

    The monster rodent was the most spectacular discovery in a remote area of Indonesia which experts are describing as a "lost world" of hitherto-unknown animals and plants.
