Alien elese catch rats with really long tails like this? Everyone always comments how long they are and idk if I have a different species or what.any of you r experts happen to know

Trap is a bridger 5x5 for reference

That's a Boone and Crockett rat tail there.

Dang Wolfy... that is what we call a "Humdinger".... Never saw one that long before.

Garry-

I think they might be roof rats.

better watch out , it might be a new undiscovered species unique to your area that will need study and to be placed on the endangered species list

the Rare long tail Mississippi rat

Lol I'm staring to think that ! And it's weird .I put a trail cam in my shed on my corn bucket and I don't think I ever see these guys. Field mice chipmunks and the like but never theses big rats

Very interesting! Looks like these are roof rats like yotetrapper suggested . And apparently they like trees so that would explain how they keep getting in my dang roof

Nice drag on that 5x5!

Stabilizer actually

So, is your Lowes not overran with roof rats then? Ours has an infestation but we're told ours is mild compared to other Lowes in MS, specifically, Columbus,

Yes sir LA4 definitely a booner but is it typical or non typical doesn’t matter will book either way
