Travellers from New Guinea tell Of
small coral island, bare of vegetation,
which harbors q number of lean, hun
gry-looking rats. AS there is apparently
no food, the rats go down to the edge
of the reef and dangle their tails In
the water. Suddenly the rat gives a
violent leap and lands with crab
clinging to its tail. Turning around the
rat grabs the crab and devours 1t and
then returns to the reef edge, where it
repeats the operation.
