Alas, we won't have rats in the Los Osos sewer, useful or otherwise, and we possibly don't have any Kangaroo Rats left here anymore either, but it is an interesting rat story nonetheless off the link below. There is a pretty cute rat featured. Much smaller than what I saw in Brooklyn some years back. I think it is a rat model, not an actual sewer rat.

Follow the link to the NY Times out of the above story for another winsome rat photo accompanying a very interesting story about deadly germs and viruses. A slightly more convincing rat photo, but I'm still not buying the photo was taken in New York, but maybe in a small town upstate?
Scroll down on the link below to see a real looking New York rat. Or maybe don't if you are not fond of rather frightening wildlife....this one is NOT cute.
