Rats in the news

Check out this adorable new rat they found in a 'lost' volcano in PNG. (If the volcano is lost, how did they find the rat?) He is 82cm, cute as a button and completely unafraid of humans. (Thanks to Porsupah for pointing this out.)

"He's like a little Puppy!"

LOL! That made me chuckle. He is very cute and dang if he's very calm!

The volcano's lost because IT REFUSED TO STOP TO ASK FOR DIRECTIONS :-)

Now to find the giant FERRETS! They're probably in the tunnels deep to the center of the earth. Had the explorers brought a ferret with them instead of following the "AS" graffiti, they'd have their shinies AND get out quickly and safely!

*laughs* You win the internet!

But what does 'following the "AS" graffiti' mean?

citing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Journey_to_the_Center_of_the_Earth
Arne Saknussemm (Arnie Saccnuson) first made the voyage to the center of the earth, etching "AS" wherever he went, including wrong turns and dangerous places.
