It was a question from someone who has seen different rats around the city and waterfront. I
just knew that there were big wharf rats and regular city type rats (smaller). I also thought
there was one for the forest but I guess not. I know that there are sewar rats and then one
species lives in graveyards or is that wives tale?
Thank you for the replys.

Other than pets... 2 species... Most are the Brown or Norway Rat. But from time to time, in
some selected (urban) spots we get Black or Roof rats.. They can easily be told apart by the
length to the tail and the ears..;l The Black rats have a tail that is longer than its body, and
naked, somewhat rounded ears.
What have you encountered?|
