Since ancient times, rats have been considered by people to be the biggest bad cause of stealing food and bringing disease, after all, rats have nothing to help in people's lives, on the contrary, as long as there is food stolen, furniture and houses are bitten and broken, it is basically inseparable from rats.
There is a reason why the rat is the first of the zodiac, after all, the wisdom of the rat is often quoted in movies and television or anime as a theme, then the "rat king" as a terrible legend, I don't know if it will have a more intelligent mind and a more powerful body. The "rat king" to be said this time does not refer to one mouse, but several.
Legend has it that wherever the "Rat King" appears, there will be disasters, like plague or other natural disasters, and its appearance is also very strange, it is a very strange way to appear.
The composition of the "rat king" is not one, but several, their tails will be tied together by a mysterious force, it is impossible to untie this knot without the help of high-IQ animals, is it really like western legends, the place where the "rat king" appears, it must be accompanied by plague and disaster?
Just a week ago, a Russian melon farmer named Sulov found something on his farmland that only the legend can appear, "Rat King", and then he immediately filmed the "Rat King" and posted it on Instagram, which caused a fierce discussion among netizens, after all, this phenomenon is not clearly explained by scientists now.
At that time, Aliblat Rassulov was working in the melon field, and then he suddenly found that the watermelon vine was moving, at first he did not care, as the movement became more and more and more and has only been moving in that place, so he could not help but go forward to find out, and when he opened the melon vine, he found such a strange scene.
The tails of the five small rats were tied into a dead knot, which at first glance seemed impossible for them to untie, and the discovered rats began to struggle to escape, but because all five rats were running in their own direction, they could not run at all. At that time, the farmer thought that the mother rat should be afraid of the baby mouse running away and tied it, but this statement obviously did not make sense.
After uploading the video, out of kindness, he untied the dead knot of the rat's tail, and he felt that there was nothing, but the online response was great. Many people think that this phenomenon is incredible, and it must represent an ominous sign, because this situation has been followed by plague and disaster before, after all, only the gathering of a large number of rats can lead to such a small probability of happening.
After unraveling and releasing the five rats, Rasulov almost drowned after accidentally slipping in the waterlogged farmland during the irrigation work, was it because of the "rat king"? No one knows, so what does the appearance of this extremely strange "rat king" mean?
In fact, the situation of several rat tails being knotted is not the first time it has been found, as early as 2005 someone has found a similar situation, and there have been several times before this phenomenon, and even once again, the tails of multiple rats are entangled because of the horse's hair interlocking, and as the rat's desire to run gradually becomes stronger, the dead knot will become tighter. Yet for so many years no scientist has been able to explain exactly why this is the case.
Some scientists believe that the tail of the mouse is very long, because the mouse has the characteristics of social habitation, if their soft tail sticks to any sticky substance, there is indeed a chance that there will be such a situation where the tail of multiple rats sticks together, but the tail of the mouse is very soft and slender, if it is easy to break free because of this sticking together, it will not get tighter and tighter.
There may be a more evidence-based claim that this part of the scientist said that rats are a good climbing animal, and the tail of the mouse also has a special skill, that is, the unconscious grasping reaction of the mouse tail, if a bunch of rats are crowded together to eat or sleep in a piece, and there is a certain sticky substance, then their tails will stick tightly together, and the grasping reaction will make the knot more and more dead, and then this spectacle is formed.
The appearance of the "Rat King" can be traced back to 1564, when the "Rat King" was discovered in the midst of a plague, so this strange phenomenon was defined as an ominous omen.
Later, in Estonia in 2005, a migrant worker also discovered this situation, and this phenomenon has been discovered many times, the largest rat king specimen is now located in the Altenburg Science Museum in Germany, in this specimen, there are 32 rats, the tail is also knotted together in this way, it was found in a flour mill after a fire.
Finally, how exactly their tails were tied together and became dead knots, no one knows the real reason, after research found that their tails are knotted together, they die after a period of time due to physical strength and lack of food. Whatever the reason, we must respect any living thing and believe in science.
