It's not as scary as it sounds.
Scientists have created the a mouse-rat hybrid Scientists have created a rodent Frankenstein. In two new studies, researchers from Columbia University and the University of Texas Southwestern have revealed that rat brain cells can fill in for lost neurons in mice. When they put together rat and mouse brains, they found that the rat brain cells helped the mouse to better understand its environment, and even allowed mice to sniff out sweets.
The two rodents are spotted in similar environments, but have their own life cycles and habitats, usually in the forests, fields and meadows. Rats tend to live up to 12 months, whereas mice can live up to 18 months in the wild. However, rats are larger and heavier, while mice are smaller and have longer, more hairy tails.
