Practically everyone on the internet has seen the adorable video of a rat enjoying the shower.
But many animal activists have come forward to reveal the dark truth behind the viral
sensation.
For starters, its not a rat.
You've probably seen this video and if you haven't, heres a clip.
It shows a rodent standing next to a drain covered in soap.
The rodent appears to lather itself up with soap and wash itself in circle motions.
The reason why the internet loved it is because the rodent looks like its showering like a
human.
I mean, its standing up on its hind legs, scrubbing its pits.
it might as well have a mini loofah in one hand and a shower cap.
While the rodent seems to enjoy his shower, The people who are taking the video can be
heard giggling in the background.
Apparently the shower went on for about 30 seconds before the rat ran off.
So starting things off, this animal is not a rat.
It does not have a rat tail.
According to Dallas Krentzel, an evolutionary biologist, It is most likely a young paracana
or another type of south American rodent.
The video was taken in peru.
What seems like a light hearted video of an adorable rodent scrubbing himself down with
soap, is actually very strange, unnatural behaviour, and it very well might be a video
of a rodent in pain.
According to Elisa Allen, director of PETA, rodents don't need soap and water to clean
themselves.
Another rat expert said that it is likely that the animal wasn't showering, but it
was in pain and it was scrubbing an irritant, which was the soap or shampoo it was covered
in.
Rodents don't scrub themselves like that unless there was something on it that it was
trying to get off.
All the while, the people taking the video didn't think to maybe, I don't know, wash
off the soap?
Or maybe not put soap on the rat in the first place?
The person who took the video Jose Correa, has updated the video with a statement in
response to the backlash, and said 'if you are worried about a rat that was filmed taking
a shower, why don't you worry about poverty and hunger in the world?
Why don't you feed the poor on the streets?
Very true indeed.
