Rat gets squashed *WARNING GRAPHIC* educational analysation, read description.

This is a very interesting video showing abnormal behaviour of a rat (Rattus Rattus) in an urban environment. By normal behaviour, we mean more commonly seen, instinctive, survival behaviour. There was something off about this particular rodent as it walked brazenly in broad daylight, amongst people and animals (there was a cat nearby). Other unusual behaviour it showed included being active in daylight, unfazed by animals or humans, walking slowly and leisurely It did appear dazed and confused, with an obvious fear of unfamiliar sounds (the screeching of the brakes on a motor vehicle) which seemed to startle the rodent, but instead of removing itself to safety, it ran straight towards the noise.  Both fascinating and tragic at the same time, it shows that, in the wild, if an animal doesn’t possess the natural traits for survival, it will have lower chances of survival. Those that survive due to exceptional skills and correct decision making in potentially life threatening situations
