this rat has been known to be a close relative of Rattus rattus (Black rat) and has been misidentified for them for many, many years. however, R. noodilicus has much higher intelligence, and is better at learning, problem solving, and creativity. it has a longer body it can compress and elongate when stuck. it has had sightings all around Germany, Mexico, America, and China, so it is hard to pinpoint where its habitat is. it is extremely rare, and contact is quite rare the current only one in captivity is in a lab, and is currently under strict testing to determine which habitat it prefers.
