Roasted rat is best prepared like Beef Wellington, wrapped in a pastry shell so as not to scare the diners.

If we were living during the Depression or even back a few hundred years, this ‘giant’ rat would be a meal along the lines of ‘tastes like chicken’.......

Better off calling The Doctor and Leela. These may be the guards of Wang-Chiang.

I doubt that rat is 18 inches long, nose to end of tail.

That is a big rat, but far from Capybara size.

Sounds like the Brits need to up their production of Jack Russell Terriers. They are absolutely fearless. Will take on any size vermin. We always say if they were the size of Great Danes nothing would be left alive. They are sweet little dogs but have a tremendous prey drive. I may have to go buy some mice just to keep mine happy. He has cleaned out my barns. My elderly barn cat adores him.
