You have not been to Australia obviously. Tell that to the possum gracefully munching flowers outside my window.

Eh. On the one hand, that's a marsupial; on the other, possum-sized rats aren't at all unusual in Baltimore, and I gather in other cities as well.

Inconceivable!

I think a capybara's size is unusual for a rodent, but YMMV.
