Rat Has Shower!:

A strange video of a "shower rat" that seems to be bathing just like a human has been making its rounds across social media.

The video, from Peru, shows a rodent standing next to a drain with what looks to be soap all over its body. The rodent is seen rubbing the soap all over its body in a human-like manner.

But, the now famous rat is actually a Pacarana, a type of brown rodent from South America, Newsweek says. 

"With the large head size, bipedal position, flexible forelimbs, short stiff tail, and consistent coat color, this animal fits the ID of a Pacarana," Dallas Krentzel, an evolutionary biologist who studies rodent diversity at the University of Chicago at the Field Museum, said to Newsweek.

Krentzel says Pacaranas are often seen standing on their hind legs.

The Rat was seen in a Bathroom in Peru

DJ Jose Correa, 36, said: 'He was just like a human, I’ve never seen anything like it'

The Rat has already had 38 Million Views on Reddit.

Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan laughed: "That's ridiculous, you've been duped by fake news" when co-host Susana Reid tried to argue that the the video was real.

If it was real then where was He going?

Thats a clever Rat. 8-)
