    Urrgh!!! Almost spat Coke on my keyboard after seeing that. It’s big enough to be my dog!

    Now, if only Fear Factor can use some of ‘em rodents on their next show… :D

    There may have been similar rats on Ulleungdo 500 years ago. In King Sejong’s geography text from the 1450s, Ulleungdo was described as having “rats as big as cats”:

    鼠大如猫
    쥐는 크기가 고양이 같고

    Let me guess, the rat was discovered by an elderly American tourist who thought it was a Chihuahua.
