It's a perspective trick. He's holding it out to the camera on a long stick! Load of old arsewater...

Mild winter and few people control them.

My old fella has a couple of allotments for his hens and this year has been mental for them. Trapping two and three of them every single day. Some big buggers too! Not as big as the one in the link (not looked but i imagine it's the same story as on facebook) but notable in that they seem to be getting bigger year on year.

Changed my mind now:

African Pouched Rats are not domesticated animals. They require lots of love, attention, exercise, space, time and money if they are going to be kept as a successful pet. If you keep one of these animals the chances are that you will get bitten, they will destroy your furniture and they will keep you up at night. They will also delight and amaze you and, on balance, they are worth it.

There seems to be a missed opportunity here for some enterprising person to manufacture 1/2 sized replicas for sale at inflated prices to the under inflated

You know, it doesn't look like a regular brown or black rat to me. Could it be that someone's pet cloud rat went missing?

This was on radio five, a listener thinks it was some sort of water rodent from Norfolk....

First thing I thought, is does it have webbed feet

It's also. " forced perspective" picture: it's big , but only about ( at the most) half the size it appears to be.
