This rather big rat is “about five times the size of a typical city rat”, and as luck would have it, is completely unafraid of humans whatsoever. The rodent, which is currently being studied, is suspected to be a brand new species.
Our little friend was discovered on an expedition trip in the Foja mountains rainforest.

Yeah I saw this on the news and was freaked out. I believe city rats are pretty damn big!

I couldn’t believe it either! These things are huge. I wouldn’t want one of those in my house, that’s for sure.
