Rats are common in our lives, although they are always sneaky. It is said that rats have been living on the earth for more than 47 million years before human beings even appeared, so it can be said that rats are living fossils.

Rats have a very well-developed sense of smell and use their keen sense of smell to find food, courtship and contact. Urine and secretions are left on the routes they frequent, and rats follow these routes that have a particular odor.

In addition, although rats have poor eyesight, they are quite sensitive to changes in light intensity. And their sense of hearing is very well developed, able to determine the direction of the source of sound in the dark, and can also emit ultrasonic waves!

What you may not know is that rats have a strong exploratory behavior and curiosity, often constantly running around their range, exploring to learn about all the objects, food sources, water sources, terrain, etc. in their environment.
