Giant Rat Found In Mexico City Sewer

We’ve all heard the stories about giant, mutated animals living in the sewer. Not the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle types but, family pets discarded and somehow given an endless feeding source to grow to historic sizes. More like the Rodents Of Unusual Size in The Princess Bride. In Mexico City this actually happened! ….. Sort of. While cleaning the clogged sewers crews did find a giant rat. However the VERY lifelike creature was simply a large Halloween lawn ornament that had gotten swept away in previous floods. The woman who claimed it said she had asked for crews to get it for her when it first got swept away, but they didn’t take care of it. The one thing I’ll say is that it actually looks scarier now than I’m sure it originally did.
