Forget D.C., Giant Rats Found In Rainforest.

Remember The Princess Bride? Westley and Buttercup had to make their way through the dense forest and encountered these giant M.F-ers?


Well, get ready kids, because this is reality:

Once again, proving if you want some scary sh!t you will go to a rainforest. Scientists found this giant rodent in a remote area of Papua New Guinea. Nose to tail, it is 32.2in and about 3.3lbs. Along with finding a rat "the size of a cat," the researchers from BBC Natural History Unit found about 30 new species including frogs, bats and insects. Although technically the largest rodent in the world is the capybara, which looks like a giant guinea big, I think this one is more traumatizing. Let's hope they can't swim to the mainland.
