It will never stop making me laugh that a rat on the BC/Alta border goes one way getting to be "adopted" and taught to drive a tiny car; or goes the other way and every single person would risk their life to swerve into and run over it with a full sized one.

While cute, we as humans need to stop teaching smart animals how to use our tech. We are basically asking to be replaced at this point. haha
