I once knew a good friend who had a giant rat.

She's married now.

I have to laugh the way the thing sits there all nonchalant scratching its bollocks and posing for the camera.

Was thinking the same thing...makes you think they tranq'd it. If it's like that by nature I wouldn't mind having one just to scare the sh*t out of people. You could put that [Poor language removed] on a leash and walk it FFS.

It's from Papua New Guinea, of course it is!

Here's an even bigger one.

Not as cute as the New Guinean one though.

It's probably the first time it's come into contact with humans. Give it a week and it'll be all stroppy, demanding cheese and insisting on relocation down some back alley.

Which is actually even more mind-boggling...it must be king of the food chain around there, otherwise you'd think it'd be trying to take a chunk out of that blokes hand but it can't even be arsed to move. Very strange...

That's amazing.

Anyone remember the one found in China recently?

Not sure if it was a one off freak, but the funny thing was, the guy that caught it ran off with it down the street.

mmmmm rat stew.
