I saw these on the BBC website where they've been posted as 'Musical Rats'. I almost felt the need to point out that actually it's just the one rat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
On the BBC pictures, the fifth picture is the panpipes one, you can see a little tongue running along the top of the pipes (awwww...sorry, but rat tongues are cute [especially when they lick you to death]). So I am guessing they've used something like Nurish-Um, FerretVite, Nutrical, stuff rats can't resist really, to get the mouth in the right place for the photos. I posted the BBC link to my husband, who just said 'all that proves is rats will put anything in their mouths'... |

I think that rat is actually trying to eat the flute rather than play it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

Wanted to use one of these for a profile pic but they are copyright so I can't (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) just love the one with the sax. Nice lighting on the whiskers too.

Seems a bit drastic to be terrified of a hamster in a cage. |
