How About a Vacation With a Giant Jumping Rat?
 
And then there's the Giant Jumping Rat, a local resident on the island of Madagascar, just off the southeast coast of Africa. A rabbit-sized creature, with a scaly tail and twitchy pink nose, it shoots from its burrow with a tremendous leap to ward off predators.
