    Its not my first run in with rats in the bush that's for sure

    A $390 pair of boots in Te Urewera that they thought might be tasty.

    Some them arent very kittle either.
    During a job at Wairango station many years ago our crew was staying in the filthiest sheares quarters in the world. Lots of big rats in there. The biggest we killed in there measured 18 inches nose to tail !
