I got a cooked cob of corn 🌽 yesterday evening from a friend. However, I decided to take it home cos it was too cold. Then I developed another plan.

I roasted it then snapped it into two to make two baits! 🧠 Sharp!

I strategically set the traps with experience, lest they eat my bait and still run away as they do sometimes-which used to be quite frustrating 😤
U sha don succeed in making their children an unexpected Orphan 😃😃😃

i swear!!! this dude is eating rats shocked

There are different kinds of rats, some can be eaten and some will make you sick. The common gutter and house rats - Rattus Rattus, are dirty and are not safe to eat as they carry diseases. The one the OP is preparing is called a Gambian Pouched Rat. Some people call it rabbits but they are more in the family of chipmunks and squirrels as they have pouches in their mouths they use in carrying food. They eat clean things like corn, rice, cassava, yam and so on... They are eating in almost every part of Africa and are also used as pets and mine detectors. Some don't eat it because of where they live sometimes, those that live far from humans are cleaner and live in burrows in bushes. Those that live near humans can live in burrows, pile of blocks, uncompleted buildings, anthills and broken septic tanks. So, in summary, they are edible.

I read the entire 3 pages of this thread and not a single ethnic insult, no mention of wether eating rats was an NW or SW or NE or SE or SS or NC things.
No one called any one out as the reason why the op is eating rats. No one mentioned any politician or politics.
A whole 3 pages!!
So we can actually have a Nigerian conversation on nairaland with our heads full of sanity and catch fun without insulting another region?
This is a good sign and I just wish we can have more of this.
I look forward to a thread about Nigeria and Nigerians where objectivity and national purpose defines the discussion and not regional hatred.
Shalom!!
