Congratulations to the first rat who follows in the paw prints of 34 dogs Then thirty two racing pigeons I found it really impressive that the equivalent cost to training a dog compared to a rat was $25k - $7k. There is however something very magical about animals being recognised with medals. |

When you have a chance look up the pigeon Cher Ami who was awarded the croix De Guerre one of Frances highest medals For saving the lost battalion in WW1 Sorry don't know how to do links |

Saw it in the news, it’s one hell of a big rat, the size of a Jack Russell.
