This is a story from your worst nightmare. Rats as big as cats – and lots of them. But what happens when you actually have several of these huge scary creatures run right into your path? Read on to see what this English gentleman has to say when it happened to him.
Wildlife experts have said reports of a colony of giant rats need to be investigated after a huge rodent was shot dead on a West Yorkshire housing estate. The culled super rat measured 30in (2.5ft) – making it as big as a bulldog – and twice the size of a normal rat.
Experts believe it could be a descendent of the coypu species, a large South American rodent not seen in Britain for two decades. Brandon Goddard, 31, who shot the rat, said voluminous vermin have been invading homes on the Ravenscliffe estate in Bradford.
The man who found and killed the rat says “the one I shot was absolutely terrifying. I was shaking. Goodness knows where the others went. I’m glad I don’t live there. He saw four others of the same size as he fired on the group with an air rifle. “They were more like Ratzillas than rats.”
