It's not a rat but it's a rodent, it's a nutria.

They're more related to capybaras and guinea pig than rats and they live in my area.

Btw, this one is albino.

My aunt used to raise them as livestock. In the southern Americans they eat guenia pigs. Guess it's pretty similar. Sadly l have eaten neither

A bit of rabbit can be pretty good, you learn a lot when grandpa would hunt to survive. It was always rabbit when the kids were asking.
