Being an omnivore - an animal who eats adaptably, taking whatever is available - is a high-risk, high-return strategy in the natural world. It opens up a huge range of foods, but it makes it impossible for the omnivore to adapt to the specific chemical toxins of a single food source. Rats are omnivores, which is why they are so remarkably successful and so very difficult to poison. When a rat encounters a new food it nibbles at it very cautiously, taking a tiny amount. Then it waits for a day or so. As long as it is not ill, it returns to eat some more. *21\180\8* |
