Vixen Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Gas worker James Green with the rat found near Hackney Downs, east London. The perspective of the photo makes it difficult to see the rat's exact size, although the workers say it was four-foot in length Revealed: How '4ft monster rat' found by gas man on London housing estate is from GAMBIA and highly intelligent Gas man was working in Hackney when he spotted the massive rodent Shocking photo shows the size of the animal, said to weigh 25lbs Comes amid fears the vermin are growing immune to normal poisons Animal could have been a Gambian pouched rat that had been kept as a pet They say you are never more than six feet away from a rat in the capital. So residents on the London housing estate where this monster was found might be forgiven for feeling a little queasy. But before you start looking under the floorboards for similar-sized super-rats, sceptics have suggested the rodent in this shot appears larger than it is simply because it's being held close to the camera lens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 If that rat is 4ft long and weighs in at 25lbs ill eat it deep fried lol I'd like to see him hold a 25lbs weight in them grippers at arms length it would snap the handle off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daz2905 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I was once on holiday in goa and saw what i thought was a dead cat in road. I stopped the bike and went over to it and found it was a rat about the same size as what that guys holding. The rats seem to have a better diet than the people over there.

I don't know what I would do if i saw one that big. To be honest I don't know I would do if I saw a small one either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
