WHOA That Rat is HUGE! December 17, 2007 at 4:40 pm
That rat is huge, it weighs over 3 pounds and is 5 times larger than a city rat. I hope I never have to run into him when he is hungry. That rat must have some good eats deep in the jungle as it is huge!
The discoveries by a team of American and Indonesian scientists are being studied further to confirm their status as newfound species.
The animals were found during a June expedition in the Foja-mountain rain forest in eastern Papua province, said U.S.-based Conservation International (CI), which organized the trip along with the Indonesian Institute of Science.
