Funny-looking rat. Short skull, small rounded ears, chubby bod. No photos I could find, just art depictions. Was officially noted extinct in 1908 -

We don’t want to “resurrect” them; we want to “exterminate” them.

I have fond memories of plinking rats at the city landfill with a .22. That 2as decades ago when you could still do that.

I used to do that, too, in the late 50s, here in south central PA, when the police would wave as they drove by.

Didn’t read whole article. The excerpt alone reads like a prologue to an old ‘50s b/w sci-fi horror movie.
