mayoraaseiI saw a rat at Redfern station today.
It was big and brown.
Must have been about 20cm big (body).
It was darting all over the rails. Sometimes it stopped and its whiskers would twitch as it poked its head around.
....I'm never touching anything in that station again. LOL.
It was pretty gross >_>; Especially since in micro we learn that rodents are one of the major ways in which some really horrible diseases are transferred (like plague).
We also learned yesterday that the Mongolians during early last millenium used to catapult corpses of people who died from the plague into cities they wanted to conquer. It worked really well.
