This is a nicely Displayed Taxidermy Rat Head mount in a glass dome. He will add a bit of creepiness to your collection! Great Halloween Decor as well! Great addition to any collection. This display is approx. 4 1/4" x 4" with a glass dome top and wood base.
Species: Rattus norvegicus (brown rat)
Fun Facts:
Laboratory rats share origins with their cousins in domestication, the fancy rats. In 18th century Europe, wild Brown rats ran rampant and this infestation fueled the industry of rat-catching. Rat-catchers would not only make money by trapping the rodents, but also by selling them for food, or more commonly, for rat-baiting.
