Okay, these look more like cute little mice, not our usual kind of detestable rat.


Even Rats Are Taking Selfies Now (and Enjoying It)
Mr. Lignier built his own version of a Skinner box — a tall, transparent tower with an attached camera — and released two pet-store rats inside. Whenever the rats pressed the button inside the box, they got a small dose of sugar and the camera snapped their photo. The resulting images were immediately displayed on a screen, where the rats could see them. (“But honestly I don’t think they understood it,” Mr. Lignier said.)

Almost all of the genes in mice share functions with the genes in humans.

This genetic similarity also means that mice and humans inherit traits in the same way.

So if I call some one a dirty rat I may not be far off from the truth unless I can't prove he's dirty. Right?
