* The [[wikipedia:Capybara|capybara]], the [[wikipedia:Beaver|beaver]] and the [[wikipedia:Porcupine|porcupine]] (the three largest living rodents)
* A "rat king" is the name given to a group of rats whose tails are so mired in muck and filth that they are permanently stuck together. Just as horrifying today as it was back in the sixteenth century.
** One wonders how long a rat king would survive. Counting "survival" as the amount of time between forming a rat king and the number of component rats which are dead being sufficient to noticeably hamper the surviving ones.
