“My rats would probably never have survived in the wild”
I remember watching a video where they released some pet rats into the wild. They adapted very quickly and did well. These little buggers are very smart.

- rqtwteye 4y agoI think you would be very surprised how quickly animals can adapt. Same for humans. Most of us have no clue how to live without modern conveniences. But I think if we took away these, a lot of people would adapt. A lot wouldn't survive, but a lot would learn quickly.
