Grandad Kills Giant Rat!

A man from County Durham has killed a rat on his land that was bigger than a cat.

The giant rat measured 1.2m from nose to tail and was so heavy that it broke the piece of wood used to pick it up.

Brian Watson, 67, killed it after his son-in-law found it while mowing the grass. He said: “I’ve never seen a rat as big in my life before.”

Rats are common pests and usually grow to around 40-45cm long.

Here is a news report about the giant rat with an interview.

Yes very weird!!!
