      Adore them. How about the other giant African rat that lives in the forests of Africa? Rats RULE. For decades I kept at least two in my preschool classrooms. How many incidents of bites have I had during my teaching? How about a big fat ZERO?!?! Yep not even one bite.

      I wish they did too! Gambian pouched rats do live a bit longer, averaging 5 to 7 years. It's just not fair. The common fox squirrel can live up to 18 years, so their short lifespan isn’t due to being rodents.

      @@BeastGuardian no they just evolved naturaly to have more kids and a shorter life span. How and why this is, is probaby to complicated to explain and it isn´t like there is a ultimative answere to this. But in short they just evolved like that because of their enviroment and natural mutations.

      The biggest shame is that domestic rats often have their lives shorten as a result of health issues humans bred them to have back when they first were scientifically used for experimentation. I’ve had a lot of pet rats and plenty never made it to 3yrs old. I actually ended up with a wild brown rat as a pet (which is the same breed most domesticated/fancy rats are) after our pet cat brought home a baby rat from a nest our neighbours construction project exposed, little guy wasn’t going to survive if released (according to our neighbour the rest of the nest babies were eaten by a kookaburra), he was so young he likely had never left the nest before; which also meant he was super easy to domesticate and bonded to me extremely quickly. (Since it might freak people out, I should mention that my sister in law is a vet and 100% made sure he was disease free + I kept him independent of my other pet rats). This little rattie ended up living five and a half years! Way longer than the 20+ pet rats I’ve had throughout my life. I wish all rats could live that long 😢

    That "stick on a rope" was how they were training them to detect land mines; which is completely safe for them to do since they are too light to trigger the mine. They are actually well taken care of and loved because of the service they are doing.
